After Linus's rant about performance I took a second look, and lo and
behold there is a significant optimization oppportunity missed here.
This should almost certainly be:
extern void __detach_mounts(struct dentry *dentry);
static inline void detach_mounts(struct dentry *dentry)
{
if (unlikely(d_mountpoint(dentry)))
return;
__detach_mounts(dentry);
}
Just so I don't take the namespace lock when not necessary.
Although wether this should be inline or at the start of detach_mounts
and out of line I don't know. Sigh. I will have to play with this
detail a bit more.
