Subject: [PATCH] memcg: drain all stocks for the cgroup before read usage

From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill@...temov.name>

Currently, mem_cgroup_usage() for non-root cgroup returns usage
including stocks.

Let's drain all socks before read resource counter value. It makes
memory{,.memcg}.usage_in_bytes and memory.stat consistent.
