Ok, I just looked.  Currently we are _not_ stat'ing every file as part
of the sweep (at least in afsd).  The user-space code just performs a
readdir() and saves the d_ino value.  This value is then passed into
the kernel.  At no point is stat() called (except in the case where
cache files/directories are created).
