vfs: fix dentry LRU list handling and nr_dentry_unused accounting
The LRU list changes interacted badly with our nr_dentry_unused accounting, and even worse with the new DCACHE_LRU_LIST bit logic. This introduces helper functions to make sure everything follows the proper dcache d_lru list rules: the dentry cache is complicated by the fact that some of the hotpaths don't even want to look at the LRU list at all, and the fact that we use the same list entry in the dentry for both the LRU list and for our temporary shrinking lists when removing things from the LRU. The helper functions temporarily have some extra sanity checking for the flag bits that have to match the current LRU state of the dentry. We'll remove that before the final 3.12 release, but considering how easy it is to get wrong, this first cleanup version has some very particular sanity checking. Acked-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
