The comment aove seems odd, given that it doesn't match the code.
I'd rather have something like:

	/*
	 * Used dentry, remove it from the LRU.
	 */

in its place, and a second one above the DCACHE_REFERENCED check:

	/*
	 * Referenced dentry, give it another pass through the LRU.
	 */

Another odd comment.  It talks about doing a list_move in the branch
that doesn't do the list_move, and the list_move outside the branch
actually has the d_lock, thus disagreeing with the comment.

No need to decrement the per-cpu counter while still having the lock
held.

I'd rather move this hunk to the previous patch, as it fits into the
logical change done there.
