[PATCH v2 1/2] mm,vmscan: Make unregister_shrinker() no-op if register_shrinker() failed.

[Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp>]

Syzbot caught an oops at unregister_shrinker() because combination of
commit 1d3d4437eae1bb29 ("vmscan: per-node deferred work") and fault
injection made register_shrinker() fail and the caller of
register_shrinker() did not check for failure.

----------

Since allowing register_shrinker() callers to call unregister_shrinker()
when register_shrinker() failed can simplify error recovery path, this
patch makes unregister_shrinker() no-op when register_shrinker() failed.
Since we can encourage register_shrinker() callers to check for failure
by marking register_shrinker() as __must_check, unregister_shrinker()
can stay silent.
