mbcache: correctly handle 'e_referenced' bit

mbcache entries have an 'e_referenced' bit which users can set with
mb_cache_entry_touch() to indicate that an entry should be given another
pass through the LRU list before the shrinker can delete it.  However,
mb_cache_shrink() actually would, when seeing an e_referenced entry at
the front of the list (the least-recently used end), place it right at
the front of the list again.  The next iteration would then remove the
entry from the list and delete it.  Consequently, e_referenced had
essentially no effect, so ext2/ext4 xattr blocks would sometimes not be
reused as often as expected.

Fix this by making the shrinker move e_referenced entries to the back of
the list rather than the front.
