Subject: [PATCH 3/5] autofs: use dentry info count instead of simple_empty()

The dentry info. field count is used to check if a dentry is in use
during expire. But, to be used for this the count field must account
for the presence of child dentries in a directory dentry.

Therefore it can also be used to check for an empty directory dentry
which can be done without having to to take an additional lock or
account for the presence of a readdir cursor dentry as is done by
simple_empty().
