afs: Avoid unnecessary panic in ShakeLooseVCaches
afs_vcount can change as we traverse the loop. If we successfully
evict something from the cache, afs_vcount goes down, but our loop
variable 'i' stays incremented. For example, if afs_vcount was 100 at
the start of the loop and we kicked out 50 things, by the time we
traverse the entire VLRU, we could have iterated over the loop 100
times, but afs_vcount would still be just at 50.
So, remember what afs_vcount was at the start of the loop, and use
that for our loop limit. Note that vcaches cannot be added to the VLRU
during the execution of this loop, since we're just kicking stuff out.
And nobody else can modify the VLRU but us, since we're holding
afs_xvcache, and if we drop afs_xvcache, we restart the whole eviction
process.
The bug here was introduced by commit
bc6dd950, but usually did not
affect Linux until commit
696db866.
