bcache: at least try to shrink 1 node in bch_mca_scan()
In bch_mca_scan(), the number of shrinking btree node is calculated by code like this, unsigned long nr = sc->nr_to_scan; nr /= c->btree_pages; nr = min_t(unsigned long, nr, mca_can_free(c)); variable sc->nr_to_scan is number of objects (here is bcache B+tree nodes' number) to shrink, and pointer variable sc is sent from memory management code as parametr of a callback. If sc->nr_to_scan is smaller than c->btree_pages, after the above calculation, variable 'nr' will be 0 and nothing will be shrunk. It is frequeently observed that only 1 or 2 is set to sc->nr_to_scan and make nr to be zero. Then bch_mca_scan() will do nothing more then acquiring and releasing mutex c->bucket_lock. This patch checkes whether nr is 0 after the above calculation, if 0 is the result then set 1 to variable 'n'. Then at least bch_mca_scan() will try to shrink a single B+tree node.
