Subject[RESEND PATCH 1/5] kernfs: Use a per-fs rwsem to protect per-fs list of kernfs_super_info.
Date
Right now per-fs kernfs_rwsem protects list of kernfs_super_info instances
for a kernfs_root. Since kernfs_rwsem is used to synchronize several other
operations across kernfs and since most of these operations don't impact
kernfs_super_info, we can use a separate per-fs rwsem to synchronize access
to list of kernfs_super_info.
This helps in reducing contention around kernfs_rwsem and also allows
operations that change/access list of kernfs_super_info to proceed without
contending for kernfs_rwsem.
