And in particular the only locking change that I can see at all is that d_walk takes read_seqbegin_or_lock before checking the if the d_subdirs list is empty, which is just an extra cache line read. Which in practical terms appears like I have removed unnecessary special cases in favor less code. Which I think if anything should perform better just because there is less code to run, and what is happening is less obfuscated.
