shrink_slab() allows us to report back the number of objects we successfully scanned (out of the target shrinkctl->nr_to_scan). As report the number of pages owned by each GEM object as a separate item to the shrinker, we cannot precisely control the number of shrinker objects we scan on each pass; and indeed may free more than requested. If we fail to tell the shrinker about the number of objects we process, it will continue to hold a grudge against us as any objects left unscanned are added to the next reclaim -- and so we will keep on "unfairly" shrinking our own slab in comparison to other slabs.
