[PATCH] fs: reclaim least recently used dquots

From: Shakeel Butt
Date: Thu Jun 07 2018 - 21:38:19 EST


From: Greg Thelen <gthelen@xxxxxxxxxx>

The dquots in the free_dquots list are not reclaimed in LRU way.
put_dquot_last() puts entries to the tail and dqcache_shrink_scan()
frees from the tail. Free unreferenced dquots in LRU order because it
seems more reasonable than freeing most recently used.
