It's unclear which tree this is against but I think I got it all fixed
up.  Please check the changes to i915_gem_shrink().

Subject: drm/i915: wire up shrinkctl->nr_scanned

shrink_slab() allows us to report back the number of objects we
successfully scanned (out of the target shrinkctl->nr_to_scan).  As report
the number of pages owned by each GEM object as a separate item to the
shrinker, we cannot precisely control the number of shrinker objects we
scan on each pass; and indeed may free more than requested.  If we fail to
tell the shrinker about the number of objects we process, it will continue
to hold a grudge against us as any objects left unscanned are added to the
next reclaim -- and so we will keep on "unfairly" shrinking our own slab
in comparison to other slabs.
