We've been down this path before:

http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=114861109 717260&w=2

A lot of comments on per-sb unused dentry lists were made in
the threads associated with the above. other solutions were
found to the problem that the above patch addressed, but I don't
think any of them have made it to mainline yet. You might want
to have a bit of a read of these threads first...

Cheers,

Dave.
