fix quadratic behavior of shrink_dcache_parent()

fix quadratic behavior of shrink_dcache_parent()

The time shrink_dcache_parent() takes, grows quadratically with the depth
of the tree under 'parent'.  This starts to get noticable at about 10,000.

These kinds of depths don't occur normally, and filesystems which invoke
shrink_dcache_parent() via d_invalidate() seem to have other depth
dependent timings, so it's not even easy to expose this problem.

However with FUSE it's easy to create a deep tree and d_invalidate()
will also get called.  This can make a syscall hang for a very long
time.

This is the original discovery of the problem by Russ Cox:

  http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.fuse.devel/3826

The following patch fixes the quadratic behavior, by optionally allowing
prune_dcache() to prune ancestors of a dentry in one go, instead of doing
it one at a time.

Common code in dput() and prune_one_dentry() is extracted into a new helper
function d_kill().

shrink_dcache_parent() as well as shrink_dcache_sb() are converted to use
the ancestry-pruner option.  Only for shrink_dcache_memory() is this
behavior not desirable, so it keeps using the old algorithm.
