I check the ocfs2 code, if we register shrinker here, 
__ocfs2_recovery_thread()->
ocfs2_recover_node() seems will register and unregister a lot of unnecessary
shrinkers. It depends on the lifetime of the shrinker and the journal, because 
of
the jbd2_journal_destroy() destroy everything, it not a simple undo of
jbd2_load_journal(), so it's not easy to add shrinker properly. But it doesn't
seems like a real problem, just curious.

Thanks,
Yi.
