Since then, I have done some testing myself, but I can't reproduce
this problem in two of my systems - x86 and x86_64. I ran rename14
in a loop too, but after exhausting a lot of free memory, dcache
does get shrunk and I don't see dentries stuck in RCU queues at all.
I tried UP kernel too.

I've only managed to reproduce it on a UP system with HIGHMEM.

So, there must be something else in your system that I
am missing in my setup. Could you please mail me your .config ?
