Subject: [PATCH -mm] vmscan: move reclaim_state handling to shrink_slab

current->reclaim_state is only used to count the number of slab pages
reclaimed by shrink_slab(). So instead of initializing it before we are
going to call try_to_free_pages() or shrink_zone(), let's set in
directly in shrink_slab().

This patch also makes shrink_slab() return the number of reclaimed slab
pages (obtained from reclaim_state) instead of the number of reclaimed
objects, because the latter is not of much use - it was only checked by
drop_slab() to decide whether it should continue reclaim or abort. The
number of reclaimed pages is more appropriate, because it also can be
used by shrink_zone() to accumulate scan_control->nr_reclaimed.

Note that after this patch try_to_free_mem_cgroup_pages() will count not
only reclaimed user pages, but also slab pages, which is expected,
because it can reclaim kmem from kmem-active sub cgroups.
