3.16.55-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tetsuo Handa <[email protected]>

commit 88bc0ede8d35edc969350852894dc864a2dc1859 upstream.

register_shrinker() might return -ENOMEM error since Linux 3.12.
Call panic() as with other failure checks in this function if
register_shrinker() failed.

Fixes: 1d3d4437eae1 ("vmscan: per-node deferred work")
