Allow scaling of arc in proportion to pagecache
When multiple filesystems are in use, memory pressure causes arc_cache
to collapse to a minimum. Allow arc_cache to maintain proportional size
even when hit rates are disproportionate. We do this only via evictable
size from the kernel shrinker, thus it's only in effect under memory
pressure.
