[PATCH 5.4 15/44] memcg: charge fs_context and legacy_fs_context

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Yutian Yang <nglaive@xxxxxxxxx>

commit bb902cb47cf93b33cd92b3b7a4019330a03ef57f upstream.

This patch adds accounting flags to fs_context and legacy_fs_context
allocation sites so that kernel could correctly charge these objects.

We have written a PoC to demonstrate the effect of the missing-charging
bugs.  The PoC takes around 1,200MB unaccounted memory, while it is
charged for only 362MB memory usage.  We evaluate the PoC on QEMU x86_64
v5.2.90 + Linux kernel v5.10.19 + Debian buster.  All the limitations
including ulimits and sysctl variables are set as default.  Specifically,
the hard NOFILE limit and nr_open in sysctl are both 1,048,576.
