Subject[PATCH][1/2] return values shrink_dcache_memory etc
Hi,

this patch, against current 2.5.27, builds on the patch that let
kmem_cache_shrink return the number of pages freed. This value
is used as the return value for shrink_dcache_memory and friends.

This is useful not just for more accurate OOM detection, but also as
a preparation for putting these reclaimable slab pages on the LRU list.
This change was originally done by Ed Tomlinson.

please apply,
thank you,

Rik

Bravely reimplemented by the knights who say "NIH".
