Huh?

This is... odd.  What's wrong with
        if (S_ISDIR(inode->i_mode)) {
                dentry = d_find_any_alias(inode);
                if (dentry) {
                        shrink_dcache_parent(dentry);
                        dput(dentry);
                }
        }
        d_prune_aliases(inode);
instead of that thing?
