It was de-prioritized on my list a year ago as I had to move to a higher
priority problems. Rebasing and re-testing these patches takes much
time, it either has to be split up in a smaller parts or applied in one go.

The current status is that I started to work on v20 rather long time ago
and the patches need to be rebased and re-tested again. Heard that
Panthor driver may want shmem shrinker more than others today.
