shake_page handles more types of page caches than
the much simpler lru_add_drain_all:

- slab (quite inefficiently for now)
- any other caches with a shrinker callback
- per cpu page allocator pages
- per CPU LRU

Use this call to try to turn pages into free or LRU pages.
Then handle the case of the page becoming free after drain everything.
