These two checks here still look like cargo cult to me. I thought the
gfp_mask you're getting is for numa/zone-aware shrinking, which we're not
doing. __GFP_FS in the shrinker is a bug.

Maybe convert to WARN_ON to convince yourself, test, then remove? If you
ever get __GFP_FS context in a shrinker lockdep will start screaming real
fast :-)

With that addressed:
