The tracking and limit of negative dentries in a filesystem is a useful
addition. However, for users who want to reduce the kernel size as much
as possible, this feature will probably be on the chopping block. To
suit those users, a default-y config option DCACHE_LIMIT_NEG_ENTRY is
added so that the negative dentry tracking and limiting code can be
configured out, if necessary.
