[PATCH 3/8] fs: move list_lru_destroy() to destroy_super_work()

From: Qi Zheng
Date: Wed May 31 2023 - 05:59:03 EST


From: Kirill Tkhai <tkhai@xxxxx>

The patch makes s_dentry_lru and s_inode_lru be destroyed
later from the workqueue. This is preparation to split
unregister_shrinker(super_block::s_shrink) in two stages,
and to call finalize stage from destroy_super_work().

Note, that generic filesystem shrinker unregistration
is safe to be split in two stages right after this
patch, since super_cache_count() and super_cache_scan()
have a deal with s_dentry_lru and s_inode_lru only.

But there are two exceptions: XFS and SHMEM, which
define .nr_cached_objects() and .free_cached_objects()
callbacks. These two do not allow us to do the splitting
right after this patch. They touch fs-specific data,
which is destroyed earlier, than destroy_super_work().
So, we can't call unregister_shrinker_delayed_finalize()
from destroy_super_work() because of them, and next
patches make preparations to make this possible.
