[RFC PATCH v3 08/12] mm: memcontrol: introduce memcg_reparent_ops

[Muchun Song]

In the previous patch, we know how to make the lruvec lock safe when the
LRU pages reparented. We should do something like following.

    memcg_reparent_objcgs(memcg)
        1) lock
        // lruvec belongs to memcg and lruvec_parent belongs to parent memcg.
        spin_lock(&lruvec->lru_lock);
        spin_lock(&lruvec_parent->lru_lock);

        2) do reparent
        // Move all the pages from the lruvec list to the parent lruvec list.

        3) unlock
        spin_unlock(&lruvec_parent->lru_lock);
        spin_unlock(&lruvec->lru_lock);

Apart from the page lruvec lock, the deferred split queue lock (THP only)
also needs to do something similar. So we extracted the necessary 3 steps
in the memcg_reparent_objcgs().

    memcg_reparent_objcgs(memcg)
        1) lock
        memcg_reparent_ops->lock(memcg, parent);

        2) reparent
        memcg_reparent_ops->reparent(memcg, reparent);

        3) unlock
        memcg_reparent_ops->unlock(memcg, reparent);

Now there are two different locks (e.g. lruvec lock and deferred split
queue lock) need to use this infrastructure. In the next patch, we will
use those APIs to make those locks safe when the LRU pages reparented.
