After traversing all directory entries, hint the empty directory
entry no matter whether or not there are enough empty directory
entries.
After this commit, hint the empty directory entries like this:
1. Hint the deleted directory entries if enough;
2. Hint the deleted and unused directory entries which at the
end of the cluster chain no matter whether enough or not(Add
by this commit);
3. If no any empty directory entries, hint the empty directory
entries in the new cluster(Add by this commit).
This avoids repeated traversal of directory entries, reduces CPU
usage, and improves the performance of creating files and
directories(especially on low-performance CPUs).
Test create 5000 files in a class 4 SD card on imx6q-sabrelite
with:
for ((i=0;i<5;i++)); do
sync
time (for ((j=1;j<=1000;j++)); do touch file$((i*1000+j)); done)
done
The more files, the more performance improvements.
