dcache-percpu-nr_dentry
The nr_dentry stat is a globally touched cacheline and atomic operation twice over the lifetime of a dentry. It is used for the benfit of userspace only. We could make a per-cpu counter or something for it, but it is only accessed via proc, so we could use slab stats. XXX: must implement slab routines to return stats for a single cache, and implement the proc handler.
