shrink_page_list() sets up a pagevec to release pages as according as they are free. It uses significant amounts of stack on the pagevec. This patch adds pages to be freed via pagevec to a linked list which is then freed en-masse at the end. This avoids using stack in the main path that potentially calls writepage().
