[f2fs-dev] [PATCH 1/8] dcache: Add helper to disable d_revalidate for a specific dentry

[Gabriel Krisman Bertazi <krisman@suse.de>]

Case-insensitive wants d_compare/d_hash for every dentry in the
filesystem, while fscrypt needs d_revalidate only for DCACHE_NOKEY_NAME.
This means we currently can't use sb->s_d_op to set case-insensitive
hooks in fscrypt+case-insensitive filesystems without paying the cost to
call d_revalidate for every dentry in the filesystem.

In preparation to doing exactly that, add a way to disable d_revalidate
later.
