      Flipping arguments of 'equals' method, allows simplifying boolean expressions: now we can remove redundant null check before.
      Example:

                  String parent = dir.getParent();
                  if (parent != null && parent.equals("/net")) {
                      return true;
                  }

      Can be simplified to:
                  String parent = dir.getParent();
                  if ("/net".equals(parent)) {
                      return true;
                  }
