To detect loops efficiently (i.e., time: +O(1) + per directory processed by ls -R, total additional space: + O(max-tree-depth)), record the dev/ino of each `active' directory + in a hash table. To know when a directory is no longer active, + insert a marker (name == NULL) entry for it in the pending queue. + When a marker comes to the front of the queue, that directory is no + longer active, and must be removed from the hash table. To remove it, + we need to know its dev/ino again.
