->d_delete() is a way for filesystem to tell that dentry is not worth keeping cached. It is not guaranteed to be called every time a dentry has refcount drop down to zero; it is not guaranteed to be called before dentry gets evicted. In other words, it is not suitable for any kind of keeping track of dentry state. None of the in-tree filesystems attempt to use it that way, fortunately. So the contortions done by fast_dput() (as well as dentry_kill()) are not warranted. fast_dput() certainly should treat having ->d_delete() instance as "can't assume we'll be keeping it", but that's not different from the way we treat e.g. DCACHE_DONTCACHE (which is rather similar to making ->d_delete() returns true when called).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
