It turns out the btree key cache shrinker wasn't actually reclaiming anything, prior to the previous patch. This adds instrumentation so that if we have further issues we can see what's going on. Specifically, sysfs internal/btree_key_cache is greatly expanded with new counters, and the SRCU sequence numbers of the first 10 entries on each pending freelist, and we also add trigger_btree_key_cache_shrink for testing without having to prune all the system caches.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
