[PATCH v3 5/6] mm: flush memcg percpu stats and events before releasing

From: Roman Gushchin
Date: Wed Mar 13 2019 - 14:40:13 EST


Flush percpu stats and events data to corresponding before releasing
percpu memory.

Although per-cpu stats are never exactly precise, dropping them on
floor regularly may lead to an accumulation of an error. So, it's
safer to flush them before releasing.

To minimize the number of atomic updates, let's sum all stats/events
on all cpus locally, and then make a single update per entry.
