If we retain them in cache, then it simply causes the working set of inodes and other cached items to be reclaimed just so the inode cache can grow. Avoid this problem by marking inodes read by bulkstat not to be cached and check this flag in .drop_inode to determine whether the inode should be added to the VFS LRU or not. If the inode lookup hits an already cached inode, then don't set the flag. If the inode lookup hits an inode marked with no cache flag, remove the flag and allow it to be cached once the current reference goes away. Inodes marked as not cached will get cleaned up by the background inode reclaim or via memory pressure, so they will still generate some short term cache pressure. They will, however, be reclaimed much sooner and in preference to cache hot inodes.
