v2:
- rebased on top of work.filename-refcnt

ACHTUNG: there is a change queued for 6.19 merge window which treats
dentry cache the same way:

    fs: hide dentry_cache behind runtime const machinery

which would result in a merge conflict in vmlinux.lds.h. thus I
cherry-picked before generating the diff to avoid the issue for later.

*shrug*
For now I'm working on top of v6.18; rebase to -rc1 will happen at the
end of window...

Anyway, not a problem; applied with obvious massage.  Will push tomorrow
once I sort the linearization out.
