It needs to stay under d_lock. Moving the unlock to caller would be
rather awkward (if we quit walking the start dentry is not even
locked, etc..) So instead of a ->leave() callback, I just added a
->finish() callback which is called once, when the walk was finished
successfully.
Fixed your other comments too. I'll do a quick testing and then post
the changed patches.
Thanks,
Miklos
