From: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
The unlinked open inodes super block counter that was added some time ago
unfortunately becomes a very hot cache line in some delete heavy
high IOPs or tmpfs workloads with enough cores, when files
are frequently removed. With TSX it also causes plenty of aborts.
Turn the atomic into a percpu_counter. It's nearly perfectly
suited for a percpu counter because it is only checked
in very slow paths, like remount.
Original commit:
commit 7ada4db88634429f4da690ad1c4eb73c93085f0c

vfs: count unlinked inodes
Add a new counter to the superblock that keeps track of unlinked but
not yet deleted inodes.
