This reverts commit 681ce862. We gave it a try, but it turns out the kernel test robot did in fact find performance regressions for it, so we'll have to look at the more involved alternative fixes for Yafang Shao's Elasticsearch load issue. There were several alternatives discussed, they just weren't as simple as this first attempt. The report is of a -7.4% regression of filebench.sum_operations/s, which appears significant enough to trigger my "this patch may get reverted if somebody finds a performance regression on some other load" rule. So it's still the case that we should end up deleting dentries more aggressively - or just be better at pruning them later - but it needs a bit more finesse than this simple thing.
