mm/vmscan.c: fix int overflow in callers of do_shrink_slab() do_shrink_slab() returns unsigned long value, and the placing into int variable cuts high bytes off. Then we compare ret and 0xfffffffe (since SHRINK_EMPTY is converted to ret type). Thus a large number of objects returned by do_shrink_slab() may be interpreted as SHRINK_EMPTY, if low bytes of their value are equal to 0xfffffffe. Fix that by declaration ret as unsigned long in these functions.
