In preparation for implementing lockless slab shrink, use new APIs to
dynamically allocate the dm-zoned-meta shrinker, so that it can be freed
asynchronously using kfree_rcu(). Then it doesn't need to wait for RCU
read-side critical section when releasing the struct dmz_metadata.

ret is not set here, so dmz_ctr_metadata() will return success. You need to add:
		ret = -ENOMEM;
or something.

Indeed, will fix.

  		goto err;

I fail to see how this new shrinker API is better... Why isn't there a
shrinker_alloc_and_register() function ? That would avoid adding all this code
all over the place as the new API call would be very similar to the current
shrinker_register() call with static allocation.

In some registration scenarios, memory needs to be allocated in advance.
So we continue to use the previous prealloc/register_prepared()
algorithm. The shrinker_alloc_and_register() is just a helper function
that combines the two, and this increases the number of APIs that
shrinker exposes to the outside, so I choose not to add this helper.

Thanks,
Qi
