Yeah, the second patch was using an u64.
I ended up using a "class" name (signalfd, timerfd, asyncfd) as dname
entry. An incremental counter would not add any useful information, and
noone will ever care about dentry name of those objects. Prolly the class
name is the only thing you might want to know, or we can drop even that
and use a shared dentry for everything.
