Re: [PATCH] shrink_dcache_parent() races against shrink_dcache_memory()

No, the fast path (more frequent) is s_prunes == 0.

sb->s_prunes--;
if (likely(!sb->s_prunes))
wake_up(&sb->s_wait_prunes);

This is only optimizing a rare case ... and unmounting isn't very time
critical.
Yeah, you are right. I was thinking about 2 things at the same time and was wrong :)
