d_prune_aliases(): use a shrink list
Instead of dropping aliases one by one, restarting, etc., just collect them into a shrink list and kill them off in one pass. We don't really need the restarts - one alias can't pin another (directory has only one alias, and couldn't be its own ancestor anyway), so collecting everything that is not busy and taking it out would take care of everything evictable that had been there as we entered the function. And new aliases added while we'd been dropping old ones could just as easily have appeared right as we return to caller... Reviewed-by:Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org> Signed-off-by:
