Right. Did I mention I was seeing a panic on a later patch? That's
because this patch removed the DCACHE_SHRINK_LIST check. So, the
DCACHE_SHRINK_LIST needs to move into dentry_lru_del(), and
dentry_lru_prune() can still go away. That's what my current version
of this patch does - I just didn't post it last night because it was
still running tests when I went to bed....
Cheers,
Dave.
