Hi folks,

After a long time I've managed to get back to these directory
speedup patches, originally posted here:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-xfs/20181024225716.19459-1-david@fromorbit.com/

I've addressed all of Christoph's original issues, incorporated his
suggestions, updated the benchmark results (same/slightly better
improvement) and done more testing on it. The series has been in my
test tree since I posted it ~9 months ago and has been in all my
benchmarking work over that time. I haven't seen any performance
regression as a result of the change of algorithm, but there are a
few that go a lot faster....

Comments welcome.

-Dave.
