mm: shrinkers: fix deadlock in shrinker debugfs

Browse Source 
The debugfs_remove_recursive() is invoked by unregister_shrinker(), which
is holding the write lock of shrinker_rwsem.  It will waits for the
handler of debugfs file complete.  The handler also needs to hold the read
lock of shrinker_rwsem to do something.  So it may cause the following
deadlock:

 	CPU0				CPU1

debugfs_file_get()
shrinker_debugfs_count_show()/shrinker_debugfs_scan_write()

     				unregister_shrinker()
				--> down_write(&shrinker_rwsem);
				    debugfs_remove_recursive()
					// wait for (A)
				    --> wait_for_completion();

    // wait for (B)
--> down_read_killable(&shrinker_rwsem)
debugfs_file_put() -- (A)

				    up_write() -- (B)

The down_read_killable() can be killed, so that the above deadlock can be
recovered.  But it still requires an extra kill action, otherwise it will
block all subsequent shrinker-related operations, so it's better to fix
it.
