Using the preparations made in previous patches, in case of memcg
shrink, we may avoid shrinkers, which are not set in memcg's shrinkers
bitmap. To do that, we separate iterations over memcg-aware and
!memcg-aware shrinkers, and memcg-aware shrinkers are chosen
via for_each_set_bit() from the bitmap. In case of big nodes,
having many isolated environments, this gives significant
performance growth. See next patches for the details.

Note, that the patch does not respect to empty memcg shrinkers,
since we never clear the bitmap bits after we set it once.
Their shrinkers will be called again, with no shrinked objects
as result. This functionality is provided by next patches.

Why trylock?  Presumably some other code path is known to hold the lock
for long periods?  Dunno.  Comment it, please.

Fair enough as a development-time sanity check but we shouldn't need
this in production code.  Or make it VM_BUG_ON(), at least.

We take shrinker_rwsem in prealloc_memcg_shrinker() and do memory allocation
there. It may result in reclaim under shrinker_rwsem write locked, so we use
down_read_trylock() to avoid deadlocks. The first versions of the patchset
contained different lock for this function, but it has gone in the process
of review.

OK
