    JFS: Move index table out of directory inode's address space · cf9e638b
    Dave Kleikamp authored
    The metadata representing the directory entries' persistent index has been
    mapped to the directory inode's address space.  This was the cause of much
    ugliness in the code to avoid the inode being released from the inode cache
    while there was still dirty metadata mapped to the inode.
    
    This patch moves this metadata to the block device inode's address space,
    which allows us to clean up the code somewhat.
