It is undesirable for sustaining workingset. So shrink deferred objects proportional to priority and cap nr_deferred to twice of cache items. The idea is borrowed fron Dave Chinner's patch: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-xfs/20191031234618.15403-13-david@fromorbit.com/ Tested with kernel build and vfs metadata heavy workload in our production environment, no regression is spotted so far.
