  Miscellaneous features that implement hot data tracking
and generally make the hot data functions a bit more friendly.

That's a bit messy. I'd prefer a static inline function that hides
all this. e.g.
Do you think of moving the condition into hot_inode_udate_freqs(), not
adding another new function?
Moving it into hot_inode_udate_freqs() will add a function call
overhead even when tracking is not enabled. a static inline function
Can we not directly define hot_inode_udate_freqs to be a static inline?:)
will just result in no extra overhead other than the if
statement....

Cheers,

Dave.
