eCryptfs: Invalidate dcache entries when lower i_nlink is zero
Consider eCryptfs dcache entries to be stale when the corresponding lower inode's i_nlink count is zero. This solves a problem caused by the lower inode being directly modified, without going through the eCryptfs mount, leaving stale eCryptfs dentries cached and the eCryptfs inode's i_nlink count not being cleared.
