This patch the corrects the dentry_stat.nr_unused calculation.
In select_parent() and shrink_dcache_anon() we were not doing 
any adjustments to the nr_unused count after manipulating the dentry_unused 
list. Now the nr_unused count is decremented if the dentry is on dentry_unused
list and is removed from there. 
Further in the same routines, we have to adjust the nr_unused count 
again if the dentry is moved to the end of d_lru list for pruning.
