Subject: mm: vmscan: hold write lock to reparent shrinker nr_deferred
Date: Mon, 13 Mar 2023 19:28:17 +0800

For now, reparent_shrinker_deferred() is the only holder of read lock of
shrinker_rwsem.  And it already holds the global cgroup_mutex, so it will
not be called in parallel.

Therefore, in order to convert shrinker_rwsem to shrinker_mutex later,
here we change to hold the write lock of shrinker_rwsem to reparent.
