Subject: [PATCH 3.12 007/142] dcache.c: get rid of pointless macros

From: Al Viro <viro@...iv.linux.org.uk>

3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit 482db9066199813d6b999b65a3171afdbec040b6 upstream.

D_HASH{MASK,BITS} are used once each, both in the same function (d_hash()).
At this point they are actively misguiding - they imply that values are
compiler constants, which is no longer true.
