When the slub shrink sysfs file is written into, the function call sequence is as follows: kernfs_fop_write => slab_attr_store => shrink_store => kmem_cache_shrink_all It turns out that doing a memcg cache scan in kmem_cache_shrink_all() is redundant as the same memcg cache scan is being done in slab_attr_store(). So revert the commit 04f768a39d55 ("mm, slab: extend slab/shrink to shrink all memcg caches") except the documentation change which is still valid.
