The local variable nr_scanned is unneeded as mem_cgroup_soft_reclaim always
does *total_scanned += nr_scanned. So we can pass total_scanned directly to
the mem_cgroup_soft_reclaim to simplify the code and save some cpu cycles
of adding nr_scanned to total_scanned.

Maybe the compiler could be clever enough to generate a good code.
mem_cgroup_soft_reclaim doesn't have other caller so it could be
inlined. But I do agree that the change makes sense because it makes the
code more consistent as mem_cgroup_soft_limit_reclaim already uses
total_scanned this way.
