fs/dcache.c: fix spin lockup issue on nlru->lock

Browse source 
__list_lru_walk_one() acquires nlru spin lock (nlru->lock) for longer
duration if there are more number of items in the lru list.  As per the
current code, it can hold the spin lock for upto maximum UINT_MAX entries
at a time.  So if there are more number of items in the lru list, then
"BUG: spinlock lockup suspected" is observed in the below path -

This nlru->lock is acquired by another CPU in this path -

Fix this lockup by reducing the number of entries to be shrinked from the
lru list to 1024 at once.  Also, add cond_resched() before processing the
lru list again.
