Two notes:

1) I'd probably kill select_parent() - it made sense when it was a huge
function called in a loop, but when it's a simple call of d_walk()...
Might as well do it directly in shrink_dcache_parent().  Moreover, in
that case we'd be free to embed list_head into your struct select_data,
rather than passing pointers.

2) I'm not sure we need the "leave" callback at all; the only user is
d_genocide() and AFAICS it can bloody well be done as part of
d_genocide_check() - we care about having it done to all nodes in
the tree, but we don't really care about the order in which it's
done...
