    Subject[PATCH 00/46] rcu-walk and dcache scaling

    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/npiggin/linux-npiggin.git vfs-scale-working

    Here is an new set of vfs patches for review, not that there was much interest
    last time they were posted. It is structured like:

    * preparation patches
    * introduce new locks to take over dcache_lock, then remove it
    * cleaning up and reworking things for new locks
    * rcu-walk path walking
    * start on some fine grained locking steps

    Thanks,
    Nick
