[RFC 17/26] union-mount: Drive the union cache via dcache

From: Jan Blunck
Date: Mon Jul 30 2007 - 12:16:40 EST


If a dentry is removed from dentry cache because its usage count drops to
zero, the references to the underlying layer of the unions the dentry is in
are droped too. Therefore the union cache is driven by the dentry cache.
