- * v9fs_dentry_validate - VFS dcache hook to validate cache
- * @dentry: dentry that is being validated
- * @nd: path data
+ * v9fs_dentry_delete - called when dentry refcount equals 0
+ * @dentry: dentry in question
*
- * dcache really shouldn't be used for 9P2000 as at all due to
- * potential attached semantics to directory traversal (walk).
- *
- * FUTURE: look into how to use dcache to allow multi-stage
- * walks in Plan 9 & potential for better dcache operation which
- * would remain valid for Plan 9 semantics. Older versions
- * had validation via stat for those interested. However, since
- * stat has the same approximate overhead as walk there really
- * is no difference. The only improvement would be from a
- * time-decay cache like NFS has and that undermines the
- * synchronous nature of 9P2000.
+ * By returning 1 here we should remove cacheing of unused
+ * dentry components.
