And that reason should be in the comment in the patch written > by Srini. When a node unlinks a file it inserts an entry into it's own orphan slot. If another node is the last one to close the file and dentry got flushed then it will not do the cleanup as it doesn't know the file was orphaned. The file will remain in the orphan slot till the node umounts and the same slot is reused again. To overcome this problem a node has to rescan all slots(including live slots) and try to do the cleanup.
