So with these patches we actually eat up more LowFree if all sysfs entries are searched, and make the dentry_cache bigger? That's not good :(
Remember, every kobject that's created will cause a call to /sbin/hotplug which will cause udev to walk the sysfs tree to get the information for that kobject. So I don't see any savings in these patches, do you?
