Linus,
This is the first of three patches implementing ilookup(), a function
to search the inode cache for an inode and if not found just return NULL.
All response about ilookup() / ilookup5() was positive and several
file systems would like to have such a function available.
The first patch just adds ilookup() and ilookup5(). This would be
sufficient for NTFS and other FS.
The second patch changes iget_locked() and iget5_locked() to use ilookup()
and ilookup5(). This makes sense as iget{,5}_locked() are just the same
as ilookup{,5}() except they call get_new_inode{,_fast}() instead of
returning NULL.
The third patch moves the inode hash calculation from iget{,5}_locked()
into get_new_inode{,_fast}().
The second and third patch have the small disadvantage to the previous
code in that in the case that ilookup() fails in iget_locked() and
get_new_inode_fast() is called the inode hash is calculated twice.
But that is the slow path so I don't think it is a problem.
If you think that is bad then you can just ignore patches 2 and 3.
But please apply at least the first patch as that is really needed.
All three patches are tested and work fine.
If you want all three patches you can also do a:

Best regards,
Anton
