Subject: [PATCH 2/3] xfs: convert inode shrinker to per-filesystem contexts

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@...hat.com>

Now the shrinker passes us a context, wire up a shrinker context per
filesystem. This allows us to remove the global mount list and the
locking problems that introduced. It also means that a shrinker call
does not need to traverse clean filesystems before finding a
filesystem with reclaimable inodes.  This significantly reduces
scanning overhead when lots of filesystems are present.
