Subject: [PATCH v4 6/8] mm: vmscan: hold write lock to reparent shrinker nr_deferred

For now, reparent_shrinker_deferred() is the only holder
of read lock of shrinker_rwsem. And it already holds the
global cgroup_mutex, so it will not be called in parallel.

Therefore, in order to convert shrinker_rwsem to shrinker_mutex
later, here we change to hold the write lock of shrinker_rwsem
to reparent.
