vmscan: clip swap_cluster_max in shrink_all_memory()

shrink_inactive_list() scans in sc->swap_cluster_max chunks until it hits
the scan limit it was passed.

shrink_inactive_list()
{
	do {
		isolate_pages(swap_cluster_max)
		shrink_page_list()
	} while (nr_scanned < max_scan);
}

This assumes that swap_cluster_max is not bigger than the scan limit
because the latter is checked only after at least one iteration.

In shrink_all_memory() sc->swap_cluster_max is initialized to the overall
reclaim goal in the beginning but not decreased while reclaim is making
progress which leads to subsequent calls to shrink_inactive_list()
reclaiming way too much in the one iteration that is done unconditionally.

Set sc->swap_cluster_max always to the proper goal before doing
  shrink_all_zones()
    shrink_list()
      shrink_inactive_list().

While the current shrink_all_memory() happily reclaims more than actually
requested, this patch fixes it to never exceed the goal:
