    f2fs: improve shrink performance of extent nodes · 201ef5e0
    Hou Pengyang authored
    On the worst case, we need to scan the whole radix tree and every rb-tree to
    free the victimed extent_nodes when shrinking.
    
    Pengyang initially introduced a victim_list to record the victimed extent_nodes,
    and free these extent_nodes by just scanning a list.
    
    Later, Chao Yu enhances the original patch to improve memory footprint by
    removing victim list.
    
    The policy of lru list shrinking becomes:
    1) lock lru list's lock
    2) trylock extent tree's lock
    3) remove extent node from lru list
    4) unlock lru list's lock
    5) do shrink
    6) repeat 1) to 5)
