Huh? That will cost us having to have a per-superblock dentry hash table; recall that lockless lockup can give false negatives if something gets moved from chain to chain, and rename_lock is first and foremost used to catch those and retry. If we split it on per-superblock basis, we can't have dentries from different superblocks in the same chain anymore...
