pginodesteal is supposed to capture the impact that inode reclaim has
on the page cache state. Currently, it doesn't consider shadow pages
that get dropped this way, even though this can have a significant
impact on paging behavior, memory pressure calculations etc.

To improve visibility into these effects, make sure shadow pages get
counted when they get dropped through inode reclaim.

This changes the return value semantics of invalidate_mapping_pages()
semantics slightly, but the only two users are the inode shrinker
itsel and a usb driver that logs it for debugging purposes.
