Add the courtesy client shrinker to react to low memory condition
triggered by the memory shrinker.

On the shrinker's count callback, we increment a callback counter
and return the number of outstanding courtesy clients. When the
laundromat runs, it checks if this counter is not zero and starts
reaping old courtesy clients. The maximum number of clients to be
reaped is limited to NFSD_CIENT_MAX_TRIM_PER_RUN (128). This limit
is to prevent the laundromat from spending too much time reaping
the clients and not processing other tasks in a timely manner.

The laundromat is rescheduled to run sooner if it detects low
low memory condition and there are more clients to reap.

On the shrinker's scan callback, we return the number of clients
That were reaped since the last scan callback. We can not reap
the clients on the scan callback context since destroying the
client might require call into the underlying filesystem or other
subsystems which might allocate memory which can cause deadlock.

Is it legit to return that we freed these objects when it hasn't
actually been done yet? Maybe this should always return 0? I'm not sure
what the rules are with shrinkers.

nfsd_client_shrinker_reapcount is the actual number of clients that
the laudromat was able to destroy in its last run.


Either way, it seems like "scan" should cue the laundromat to run ASAP.
When this is called, it may be quite some time before the laundromat
runs again. Currently, it's always just scheduled it out to when we know
there may be work to be done, but this is a different situation.

Normally the "scan" callback is used to free unused resources and return
the number of objects freed. For the NFSv4 clients, we can not free the
clients on the "scan" context due to potential deadlock and also the
laundromat might block while destroying the clients. Because of this we
use the "count" callback to notify the laundromat of the low memory
condition.

In the "count" callback we do not call mod_delayed_work to kick start
the laundromat since we do not want to rely on the inner working
mod_delayed_work to guarantee no deadlock. I also think we should do
the minimal while on the memory shrinker's callback context.

Once the laundromat runs it monitors the low memory condition and
reschedules itself to run immediately (NFSD_LAUNDROMAT_MINTIMEOUT) if
needed.

Thanks,
