Add a few new shrinker stats. number of objects requested to free, number of objects freed: Shrinkers won't necessarily free all objects requested for a variety of reasons, but if the two counts are wildly different something is likely amiss. .scan_objects runtime: If one shrinker is taking an excessive amount of time to free objects that will block kswapd from running other shrinkers.
