[PATCH,RESUBMIT] Fix shrink_dcache_parent() against shrink_dcache_memory() race

[Jan Blunck <jblunck@suse.de>]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 738 bytes --]

Kirill Korotaev <dev@sw.ru> discovered a race between shrink_dcache_parent()
and shrink_dcache_memory() which leads to "Busy inodes after unmount".
When unmounting a file system shrink_dcache_parent() is racing against a
possible shrink_dcache_memory(). This might lead to the situation that
shrink_dcache_parent() is returning too early. In this situation the
super_block is destroyed before shrink_dcache_memory() could put the inode.

This patch fixes the problem through introducing a prunes counter which is
incremented when a dentry is pruned but the corresponding inoded isn't put
yet.When the prunes counter is not null, shrink_dcache_parent() is waiting and
restarting its work.
