+Dentries are dynamically allocated and deallocated.
+
+nr_dentry shows the total number of dentries allocated (active
++ unused). nr_unused shows the number of dentries that are not
+actively used, but are saved in the LRU list for future reuse.
+
 Age_limit is the age in seconds after which dcache entries
 can be reclaimed when memory is short and want_pages is
 nonzero when shrink_dcache_pages() has been called and the
 dcache isn't pruned yet.
 
+nr_negative shows the number of unused dentries that are also
+negative dentries which do not mapped to actual files.
