[PATCH 3.14 38/44] dont remove from shrink list in select_collect()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit fe91522a7ba82ca1a51b07e19954b3825e4aaa22 upstream.

	If we find something already on a shrink list, just increment
data->found and do nothing else.  Loops in shrink_dcache_parent() and
check_submounts_and_drop() will do the right thing - everything we
did put into our list will be evicted and if there had been nothing,
but data->found got non-zero, well, we have somebody else shrinking
those guys; just try again.
