Subject: [PATCH 2/2] mm: account pmd page tables to the process

Dave noticed that unprivileged process can allocate significant amount
of memory -- >500 MiB on x86_64 -- and stay unnoticed by oom-killer and
memory cgroup. The trick is to allocate a lot of PMD page tables. Linux
kernel doesn't account PMD tables to the process, only PTE.

The use-cases below use few tricks to allocate a lot of PMD page tables
while keeping VmRSS and VmPTE low. oom_score for the process will be 0.

	#include <errno.h>
	#include <stdio.h>
	#include <stdlib.h>
	#include <unistd.h>
	#include <sys/mman.h>
	#include <sys/prctl.h>

	#define PUD_SIZE (1UL << 30)
	#define PMD_SIZE (1UL << 21)

	#define NR_PUD 130000

	int main(void)
	{
		char *addr = NULL;
		unsigned long i;

		prctl(PR_SET_THP_DISABLE);
		for (i = 0; i < NR_PUD ; i++) {
			addr = mmap(addr + PUD_SIZE, PUD_SIZE, PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ,
					MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE, -1, 0);
			if (addr == MAP_FAILED) {
				perror("mmap");
				break;
			}
			*addr = 'x';
			munmap(addr, PMD_SIZE);
			mmap(addr, PMD_SIZE, PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ,
					MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, -1, 0);
			if (addr == MAP_FAILED)
				perror("re-mmap"), exit(1);
		}
		printf("PID %d consumed %lu KiB in PMD page tables\n",
				getpid(), i * 4096 >> 10);
		return pause();
	}

The patch addresses the issue by account PMD tables to the process the
same way we account PTE.

The main place where PMD tables is accounted is __pmd_alloc() and
free_pmd_range(). But there're few corner cases:

 - HugeTLB can share PMD page tables. The patch handles by accounting
   the table to all processes who share it.

 - x86 PAE pre-allocates few PMD tables on fork.

 - Architectures with FIRST_USER_ADDRESS > 0. We need to adjust sanity
   check on exit(2).
