Prakash Surya f521ce1b9c Allow "arc_p" to drop to zero or grow to "arc_c"
Setting a limit on the minimum value of "arc_p" has been shown to have
detrimental effects on the arc hit rate for certain "metadata" intensive
workloads. Specifically, this has been exhibited with a workload that
constantly dirties new "metadata" but also frequently touches a "small"
amount of mfu data (e.g. mkdir's).

What is seen is that the new anon data throttles the mfu list to a
negligible size (because arc_p > anon + mru in arc_get_data_buf), even
though the mfu ghost list receives a constant stream of hits. To remedy
this, arc_p is now allowed to drop to zero if the algorithm deems it
necessary.
