The idea is good.  The implementation is, I'm afraid, badly chosen.
Did you benchmark this change at all?  In general, you should prefer the
core kernel implementation to that of some less-interesting filesystems.
I measured the performance with the attached test program on my laptop
(Core-i7 Kaby Lake):

qstr . time_1 0.020531 time_2 0.005786
qstr .. time_1 0.017892 time_2 0.008798
qstr a time_1 0.017633 time_2 0.003634
qstr matthew time_1 0.011820 time_2 0.003605
qstr .a time_1 0.017909 time_2 0.008710
qstr , time_1 0.017631 time_2 0.003619

The results are quite stable:

qstr . time_1 0.021137 time_2 0.005780
qstr .. time_1 0.017964 time_2 0.008675
qstr a time_1 0.017899 time_2 0.003654
qstr matthew time_1 0.011821 time_2 0.003620
qstr .a time_1 0.017889 time_2 0.008662
qstr , time_1 0.017764 time_2 0.003613

Feel free to suggest some different strings we could use for testing.
These seemed like interesting strings to test with.  It's always possible
I've messed up something with this benchmark that causes it to not
accurately represent the performance of each algorithm, so please check
that too.
