Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] mm, slab: Show last shrink time in us when slab/shrink is read

The show method of /sys/kernel/slab/<slab>/shrink sysfs file currently
returns nothing. This is now modified to show the time of the last
cache shrink operation in us.

CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG depends on CONFIG_SYSFS. So the new shrink_us field
is always available to the shrink methods.
