[PATCH 11/11] fs/dcache: Track # of negative dentries reclaimed & killed

[Waiman Long]

The negative dentry reclaim process gave no visible indication that
it was being activated. In order to allow system administrator to
see if it is being activated as expected, two new debugfs variables
"negative_dentry_reclaimed" and "negative_dentry_killed" are now added
to report the total number of negative dentries that have been reclaimed
and killed. These debugfs variables are only added after the negative
dentry reclaim mechanism is activated for the first time.

In reality, the actual number may be slightly less than the reported
number as not all the negative dentries passed to shrink_dentry_list()
and __dentry_kill() can be successfully reclaimed.
