[Tux3] Deferred namespace operations, removed HIDDEN flag

[Daniel Phillips]

With the new approach to handling busy, unlinked dentries, the
DCACHE_HIDDEN flag is no longer needed, shrinking the demo patch by
more than 40%.  Only two core files are touched, dcache.c and dcache.h:

git diff 5023112d97ace1a7363ab4b0da2701a21f6e3ffd | diffstat
 include/linux/dcache.h     |   11 ++++++
 fs/dcache.c                |    6 ++-
 fs/ext2/dir.c              |   61 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-
 fs/ext2/inode.c            |    1
 fs/ext2/namei.c            |   82 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------------
 fs/ext2/super.c            |   36 +++++++++++++++++++
 include/linux/ext2_fs_sb.h |    1
 7 files changed, 169 insertions(+), 29 deletions(-)

Still need to add handling for deferred inode create and rename.  It's
getting there.

Regards,

Daniel
