proc/sysctl: prune stale dentries during unregistering
Currently unregistering sysctl table does not prune its dentries. Stale dentries could slowdown sysctl operations significantly. For example, command: # for i in {1..100000} ; do unshare -n -- sysctl -a &> /dev/null ; done creates a millions of stale denties around sysctls of loopback interface: # sysctl fs.dentry-state fs.dentry-state = 25812579 24724135 45 0 0 0 All of them have matching names thus lookup have to scan though whole hash chain and call d_compare (proc_sys_compare) which checks them under system-wide spinlock (sysctl_lock). # time sysctl -a > /dev/null real 1m12.806s user 0m0.016s sys 1m12.400s Currently only memory reclaimer could remove this garbage. But without significant memory pressure this never happens. This patch collects sysctl inodes into list on sysctl table header and prunes all their dentries once that table unregisters.
