Hi all,

To make reviewing and updating easier, I've chosen to split the previous
patchset[1] into the following three parts:

part 1: some cleanups and preparations
part 2: introduce new APIs and convert all shrinnkers to use these
part 3: implement lockless slab shrink

This series is the part 1.

Comments and suggestions are welcome.

Thanks,
