- * 'sc' is passed shrink_control which includes a count 'nr_to_scan'
- * and a 'gfpmask'.  It should look through the least-recently-used
- * 'nr_to_scan' entries and attempt to free them up.  It should return
- * the number of objects which remain in the cache.  If it returns -1, it means
- * it cannot do any scanning at this time (eg. there is a risk of deadlock).
+ * @count_objects should return the number of freeable items in the cache. If
+ * there are no objects to free or the number of freeable items cannot be
+ * determined, it should return 0. No deadlock checks should be done during the
+ * count callback - the shrinker relies on aggregating scan counts that couldn't
+ * be executed due to potential deadlocks to be run at a later call when the
+ * deadlock condition is no longer pending.
  *
- * The 'gfpmask' refers to the allocation we are currently trying to
- * fulfil.
+ * @scan_objects will only be called if @count_objects returned a non-zero
+ * value for the number of freeable objects. The callout should scan the cache
+ * and attempt to free items from the cache. It should then return the number
+ * of objects freed during the scan, or SHRINK_STOP if progress cannot be made
+ * due to potential deadlocks. If SHRINK_STOP is returned, then no further
+ * attempts to call the @scan_objects will be made from the current reclaim
+ * context.
  *
- * Note that 'shrink' will be passed nr_to_scan == 0 when the VM is
- * querying the cache size, so a fastpath for that case is appropriate.
+ * @flags determine the shrinker abilities, like numa awareness
