shrink_slab() allows us to report back the number of objects we
successfully scanned (out of the target shrinkctl->nr_to_scan). As
report the number of pages owned by each GEM object as a separate item
to the shrinker, we cannot precisely control the number of shrinker
objects we scan on each pass; and indeed may free more than requested.
If we fail to tell the shrinker about the number of objects we process,
it will continue to hold a grudge against us as any objects left
unscanned are added to the next reclaim -- and so we will keep on
"unfairly" shrinking our own slab in comparison to other slabs.
v2: fixup the misplaced addition, we want to count everything we scan
(to match the number we reported earlier) not just the objects we
successfully validated and freed.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
