[patch 22/52] fs: dcache rationalise dget variants

From: npiggin
Date: Wed Jun 23 2010 - 23:19:57 EST


dget_locked was a shortcut to avoid the lazy lru manipulation when we
already held dcache_lock (lru manipulation was relatively cheap at that
point). However, how that the lru lock is an innermost one, we never
hold it at any caller, so the lock cost can now be avoided. We already
have well working lazy dcache LRU, so it should be fine to defer LRU
manipulations to scan time.
