So this is a local, internal definition, but ....

... this exports it to the world. That's a problem, because the
"SHRINK_*" namespace is owned by the memory management subsystem for
controlling memory shrinkers. e.g. SHRINK_STOP and SHRINK_EMPTY are
already defined and in wide use across the kernel in the cache
shrinker infrastructure.
IOWS, these new types needs to be prefixed to indicate they are JBD2
objects. i.e
enum jbd2_shrink_type {JBD2_SHRINK_DESTROY, JBD2_.... };
So that people who are looking at memory shrinker stuff don't get
horribly confused by jbd2 using shrinker namespaces for things that
are completely unrelated to memory reclaim...
