True. That should read: When we remount a filesystem or invalidate a block device which has a mounted filesystem we call shrink dcache_sb which currently: - moves a collection of dentries to the end of the dentry_unused list - calls prune_dcache to prune that number of dentries. but the patch is still valid. Any objections to it going in to -mm and maybe .20 ??
