Tetsuo Handa bb422a738f mm,vmscan: Make unregister_shrinker() no-op if register_shrinker() failed.
Syzbot caught an oops at unregister_shrinker() because combination of
commit 1d3d4437ea ("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.
Also, reset shrinker->nr_deferred in case unregister_shrinker() was
by error called twice.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
