Did you plan to resubmit this with the few review comments addressed?
I'd really hate to not see this in 2.6.36.

I've been doing some more testing on it, and while I can get a 25%
reduction in the time to create and remove 10 million inodes with
per-sb shrinker, I can't get the reclaim pattern stable enough for
my liking.

At this point in the cycle, I'd much prefer just to go with adding a
context to the shrinker API to fix the XFS locking issues (i.e. the
original patches I sent) and spend a bit more time working out which
combination of Nick's and my bits that improves reclaim speed whilst
retaining the stability of the courrent code....

Cheers,

Dave.

That approach sounds good to me.
