However, this means the evict() path still tries to remove the inode from the hash, meaning that the inode_hash_lock() needs to be taken unnecessarily. Hence under certain workloads the inode_hash_lock can be contended even if the inode is never actually hashed. To avoid this add hlist_fake to test if the inode isn't actually hashed to avoid taking the hash lock on inodes that have never been hashed. Based on Dave Chinner's inode: add IOP_NOTHASHED to avoid inode hash lock in evict basd on Al's suggestions.
