The current shrinker implementation requires the registered callback
to have global state to work from. This makes it difficult to shrink
caches that are not global (e.g. per-filesystem caches). Pass the shrinker
structure to the callback so that users can embed the shrinker structure
in the context the shrinker needs to operate on and get back to it in the
callback via container_of().

list_for_each_entry_safe is not suitable to protect against concurrent
modification of the list. 6754af6 introduced a race in sb walking.

list_for_each_entry can use the trick of pinning the current entry in
the list before we drop and retake the lock because it subsequently
follows cur->next. However list_for_each_entry_safe saves n=cur->next
for following before entering the loop body, so when the lock is
dropped, n may be deleted.

... and get rid of the last __put_super_and_need_restart() caller

We used to remove from s_list and s_instances at the same
time.  So let's *not* do the former and skip superblocks
that have empty s_instances in the loops over s_list.

The next step, of course, will be to get rid of rescan logics
in those loops.

We set the "it's dead, don't mount on it" flag _and_ do not remove it if
we turn the damn thing negative and leave it around.  And if it goes
positive afterwards, well...

Fortunately, there's only one place where that needs to be caught:
only d_delete() can turn the sucker negative without immediately freeing
it; all other places that can lead to ->d_iput() call are followed by
unconditionally freeing struct dentry in question.  So the fix is obvious:

rehashing the negative placeholder opens a race with d_lookup();
we unhash it almost immediately (by d_move()), but the race
window is there.  Since d_move() doesn't rely on target being
hashed, we don't need that d_rehash() at all.

might_sleep() is called late-ish in cond_resched(), after the
need_resched()/preempt enabled/system running tests are
checked.

It's better to check the sleeps while atomic earlier and not
depend on some environment datas that reduce the chances to
detect a problem.

Also define cond_resched_*() helpers as macros, so that the
FILE/LINE reported in the sleeping while atomic warning
displays the real origin and not sched.h

Changes in v2:

 - Call __might_sleep() directly instead of might_sleep() which
   may call cond_resched()

 - Turn cond_resched() into a macro so that the file:line
   couple reported refers to the caller of cond_resched() and
   not __cond_resched() itself.

Changes in v3:

 - Also propagate this __might_sleep() pull up to
   cond_resched_lock() and cond_resched_softirq()
