- * d_drop - drop a dentry
- * @dentry: dentry to drop
- *
- * d_drop() unhashes the entry from the parent dentry hashes, so that it won't
- * be found through a VFS lookup any more. Note that this is different from
- * deleting the dentry - d_delete will try to mark the dentry negative if
- * possible, giving a successful _negative_ lookup, while d_drop will
- * just make the cache lookup fail.
- *
- * d_drop() is used mainly for stuff that wants to invalidate a dentry for some
- * reason (NFS timeouts or autofs deletes).
- *
- * __d_drop requires dentry->d_lock.
