Commit Message

Qi Zheng Sept. 11, 2023, 9:44 a.m. UTC 
In preparation for implementing lockless slab shrink, use new APIs to
dynamically allocate the vmw-balloon shrinker, so that it can be freed
asynchronously via RCU. Then it doesn't need to wait for RCU read-side
critical section when releasing the struct vmballoon.

And we can simply exit vmballoon_init() when registering the shrinker
fails. So the shrinker_registered indication is redundant, just remove it.
