[LU-11092] NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#12 stuck for 23s! [ptlrpcd_00_18:4222]

I'm running a robinhood scan on a lustre filesystem with 80M files. As I'm getting memory pressure on the system (80M * ~1kB per lustre_inode_cache is big) and the system tries to shrink the slabs, I get those errors in /var/log/messages:

At that point, all the CPUs go to 100% and it seems like we are not making progress anymore.

I can repro by running robinhood for a few minutes and dropping the cache (echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches).

I managed to fix it by limiting lru_max_age to 10s (ldlm.namespace.*.lru_max_age).

Overall, it feels like when the slab shrinker run, if there are too many locks, reclaiming those locks takes a while, prevents the rpc stack to make progress, and then we hit a race condition in LNetMDUnlink.
