[PATCH 4/7 v3] mm/memcontrol: convert memcg to use page_counter_stock

[Joshua Hahn]

Now with all of the memcg_stock handling logic replicated in
page_counter_stock, switch memcg to use the page_counter_stock.

There are a few details that have changed:

First, the old special-casing for the !allow_spinning check to avoid
refilling and flushing of the old stock is removed. This special casing
was important previously, because refilling the stock could do a lot of
extra work by evicting one of 7 random victim memcgs in the percpu
memcg_stock slots. In the new per-counter design, refilling stock just adds
pages to the counter's own local cache without affecting other memcgs,
so the original reason for the special case no longer applies.

Also, we can now fail during page_counter_enable_stock(), if there is
not enough memory to allocate a percpu page_counter_stock. This failure
is rare and nonfatal; the system can continue to operate, with the page
counter working without stock and falling back to walking the hierarchy.

Finally, drain_all_stock is restructured to iterate CPUs in the outer
loop (rather than memcgs) to be able to schedule draining all memcgs
via a single work_on_cpu call. It reduces the number of synchronous
per-CPU work calls from O(memcgs * CPUs) to just O(CPUs).

Note that obj_stock remains untouched by these changes.
