I would be more comfortable if the allocation was done by the caller,
possibly using GFP_KERNEL and evenutally kvmalloc(),
instead of under dir->lock ?

Same remark. These allocations are most probably going to happen from process
context, I think GFP_KERNEL is more robust.

This is debugging infra, it would be sad if we give up at this point,
after storing MB of traces :)
