Subject: [PATCH] mm/vmscan: Remove sysctl_vfs_cache_pressure from non-vfs shrinkers

From: Raghavendra D Prabhu <rprabhu@...hang.net>

sysctl_vfs_cache_pressure is meant to only affect the dentries and inodes slab
caches. However, it has been used shrinkers elsewhere to trim the number of
slabs returned to shrink_slab. So, this patch removes it from those places.
