Subject: mm/workingset.c: avoid unnecessary max_nodes estimation in count_shadow_nodes()

If list_lru_shrink_count is 0, we always return SHRINK_EMPTY regardless of
the value of max_nodes.  So we can return early if nodes == 0 to save some
cpu cycles of approximating a reasonable limit for the nodes.
