Tim Chase 90947b2357 3.12 compat, NUMA-aware per-superblock shrinker
Kernels >= 3.12 have a NUMA-aware superblock shrinker which is used in
ZoL by zfs_sb_prune().  This patch calls the shrinker for each on-line
NUMA node in order that memory be freed for each one.

dnl # 3.3 API change
dnl # The super_block structure was changed to use an hlist_node instead
dnl # of a list_head for the .s_instance linkage.
dnl #
dnl # This was done in part to resolve a race in the iterate_supers_type()
dnl # function which was introduced in Linux 3.0 kernel. The iterator
dnl # was supposed to provide a safe way to call an arbitrary function on
dnl # all super blocks of a specific type. Unfortunately, because a
dnl # list_head was used it was possible for iterate_supers_type() to
dnl # get stuck spinning a super block which was just deactivated.
dnl #
dnl # This can occur because when the list head is removed from the
dnl # fs_supers list it is reinitialized to point to itself. If the
dnl # iterate_supers_type() function happened to be processing the
dnl # removed list_head it will get stuck spinning on that list_head.
dnl #
dnl # To resolve the issue for existing 3.0 - 3.2 kernels we detect when
dnl # a list_head is used. Then to prevent the spinning from occurring
dnl # the .next pointer is set to the fs_supers list_head which ensures
dnl # the iterate_supers_type() function will always terminate.
