    ext4: change LRU to round-robin in extent status tree shrinker · edaa53ca
    Zheng Liu authored
    In this commit we discard the lru algorithm for inodes with extent
    status tree because it takes significant effort to maintain a lru list
    in extent status tree shrinker and the shrinker can take a long time to
    scan this lru list in order to reclaim some objects.
    
    We replace the lru ordering with a simple round-robin.  After that we
    never need to keep a lru list.  That means that the list needn't be
    sorted if the shrinker can not reclaim any objects in the first round.
