There is a sad BUG introduced in patch adding SHRINKER_REGISTERING. shrinker_idr business is only for memcg-aware shrinkers. Only such type of shrinkers have id and they must be finaly installed via idr_replace() in this function. For !memcg-aware shrinkers we never initialize shrinker->id field. But there are all types of shrinkers passed to idr_replace(), and every !memcg-aware shrinker with random ID (most probably, its id is 0) replaces memcg-aware shrinker pointed by the ID in IDR. This patch fixes the problem.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
