ext2fs: use a seperate lock to protect nodehash
Previously, ext2fs used diskfs_node_refcnt_lock to serialize access to the nodehash. Use a separate lock to protect nodehash. Adjust the reference counting accordingly. Every node in the nodehash carries a light reference. When we are asked to give up that light reference, we reacquire our lock momentarily to check whether someone else reacquired a reference through the nodehash. * ext2fs/inode.c (nodecache_lock): New lock. (diskfs_cached_lookup): Use a separate lock to protect nodehash. Adjust the reference counting accordingly. (ifind): Likewise. (diskfs_node_iterate): Likewise. (diskfs_node_norefs): Move the code removing the node from nodehash... (diskfs_try_dropping_softrefs): ... here, where we check whether someone reacquired a reference, and if so hold on to our light reference.
