[PATCH v3 07/11] memcg: add dirty limits to mem_cgroup

[Greg Thelen]

Extend mem_cgroup to contain dirty page limits.  Also add routines
allowing the kernel to query the dirty usage of a memcg.

These interfaces not used by the kernel yet.  A subsequent commit
will add kernel calls to utilize these new routines.

Changelog since v1:
- Rename (for clarity):
  - mem_cgroup_write_page_stat_item -> mem_cgroup_page_stat_item
  - mem_cgroup_read_page_stat_item -> mem_cgroup_nr_pages_item
- Removed unnecessary get_ prefix from get_xxx() functions.
- Avoid lockdep warnings by using rcu_read_[un]lock() in
  mem_cgroup_has_dirty_limit().
