Revert "mm: shrinkers: make count and scan in shrinker debugfs lockless"
This reverts commit 20cd1892fcc3efc10a7ac327cc3790494bec46b5.
Kernel test robot reports -88.8% regression in stress-ng.ramfs.ops_per_sec
test case [1], which is caused by commit f95bdb700bc6 ("mm: vmscan: make
global slab shrink lockless"). The root cause is that SRCU has to be
careful to not frequently check for SRCU read-side critical section exits.
Therefore, even if no one is currently in the SRCU read-side critical
section, synchronize_srcu() cannot return quickly. That's why
unregister_shrinker() has become slower.
We will try to use the refcount+RCU method [2] proposed by Dave Chinner to
continue to re-implement the lockless slab shrink. So revert the
shrinker_srcu related changes first.
