drm/ttm: Fix possible stack overflow by recursive shrinker calls.

commit 71336e01 upstream.

While ttm_dma_pool_shrink_scan() tries to take mutex before doing GFP_KERNEL
allocation, ttm_pool_shrink_scan() does not do it. This can result in stack
overflow if kmalloc() in ttm_page_pool_free() triggered recursion due to
memory pressure.

  shrink_slab()
  => ttm_pool_shrink_scan()
     => ttm_page_pool_free()
        => kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL)
           => shrink_slab()
              => ttm_pool_shrink_scan()
                 => ttm_page_pool_free()
                    => kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL)

Change ttm_pool_shrink_scan() to do like ttm_dma_pool_shrink_scan() does.

[bwh: Backported to 3.2:
 - Adjust context
 - Change return value in the contended case to follow the old shrinker
   API]
