The locking can be made more fine-grained by moving to a per-sb LRU lock, isolating the LRU operations of different filesytsems completely from each other. The need for this is independent of any performance consideration that may arise: in the interest of abstracting the lru operations away, it is mandatory that each lru works around its own lock instead of a global lock for all of them.
