Subject[PATCH 0/13] sysfs lazification.
From
Date

The sysfs code updates the vfs caches immediately when the sysfs data
structures change causing a lot of unnecessary complications. The
following patchset untangles that beast. Allowing for simpler
more straight forward code, the removal of a hack from the vfs
to support sysfs, and human comprehensible locking on sysfs.

Most of these patches have already been reviewed and acked from the
last time I had time to work on sysfs.

In net the patches look like:

fs/namei.c | 22 ---
fs/sysfs/dir.c | 388 ++++++++++++++++---------------------------------
fs/sysfs/file.c | 41 +----
fs/sysfs/inode.c | 178 ++++++++++++++---------
fs/sysfs/symlink.c | 11 +-
fs/sysfs/sysfs.h | 9 +-
include/linux/namei.h | 1 -
7 files changed, 256 insertions(+), 394 deletions(-)
