DCACHE_DONTCACHE indicates a dentry should not be cached on final
dput().

Also add a helper function to mark DCACHE_DONTCACHE on all dentries
pointing to a specific inode when that inode is being set I_DONTCACHE.

This facilitates dropping dentry references to inodes sooner which
require eviction to swap S_DAX mode.

Code looks fine....

Though I suspect that this should be in fs/dcache.c and not
fs/inode.c. i.e. nothing in fs/inode.c does dentry list walks, but
there are several cases in the dcache code where inode dentry walks
are done under the inode lock (e.g. d_find_alias(inode)).

So perhaps this should be d_mark_dontcache(inode), which also marks
the inode as I_DONTCACHE so that everything is evicted on last
reference...

Cheers,

Dave.

That does follow an existing pattern.

Al?  Any preference?
