[RFC][PATCH -mm 2/7] memcg:delayed_batch_freeing_of_page_cgroup.patch

[KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki]

Freeing page_cgroup at mem_cgroup_uncharge() in lazy way.

In mem_cgroup_uncharge_common(), we don't free page_cgroup
and just link it to per-cpu free queue.
And remove it later by checking threshold.

This patch is a base patch for freeing page_cgroup by RCU patch.
This patch depends on page_cgroup_atomic_flags.patch.

Changelog: (preview) -> (v1)
  - Clean up.
  - renamed functions
