fs: shrinker: always scan at least one object of each type

In super_cache_scan() we divide the number of objects of particular type
by the total number of objects in order to distribute pressure among As a
result, in some corner cases we can get nr_to_scan=0 even if there are
some objects to reclaim, e.g.  dentries=1, inodes=1, fs_objects=1,
nr_to_scan=1/3=0.

This is unacceptable for per memcg kmem accounting, because this means
that some objects may never get reclaimed after memcg death, preventing it
from being freed.

This patch therefore assures that super_cache_scan() will scan at least
one object of each type if any.
