Amir Goldstein af4dcb6d78 ovl: use plain list filler in indexdir and workdir cleanup
Those two cleanup routines are using the helper ovl_dir_read() with the
merge dir filler, which populates an rb tree, that is never used.

The index dir entry names all have a long (42 bytes) constant prefix, so it
is not surprising that perf top has demostrated high CPU usage by rb tree
population during cleanup of a large index dir:

      - 9.53% ovl_fill_merge
         - 78.41% ovl_cache_entry_find_link.constprop.27
            + 72.11% strncmp

Use the plain list filler that does not populate the unneeded rb tree.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
