Subject: [PATCH v2 5/6] mm: rework non-root kmem_cache lifecycle management

This commit makes several important changes in the lifecycle
of a non-root kmem_cache, which also affect the lifecycle
of a memory cgroup.

Currently each charged slab page has a page->mem_cgroup pointer
to the memory cgroup and holds a reference to it.
Kmem_caches are held by the memcg and are released with it.
It means that none of kmem_caches are released unless at least one
reference to the memcg exists, which is not optimal.

So the current scheme can be illustrated as:
page->mem_cgroup->kmem_cache.

To implement the slab memory reparenting we need to invert the scheme
into: page->kmem_cache->mem_cgroup.

Let's make every page to hold a reference to the kmem_cache (we
already have a stable pointer), and make kmem_caches to hold a single
reference to the memory cgroup.

To make this possible we need to introduce a new percpu refcounter
for non-root kmem_caches. The counter is initialized to the percpu
mode, and is switched to atomic mode after deactivation, so we never
shutdown an active cache. The counter is bumped for every charged page
and also for every running allocation. So the kmem_cache can't
be released unless all allocations complete.

To shutdown non-active empty kmem_caches, let's reuse the
infrastructure of the RCU-delayed work queue, used previously for
the deactivation. After the generalization, it's perfectly suited
for our needs.

Since now we can release a kmem_cache at any moment after the
deactivation, let's call sysfs_slab_remove() only from the shutdown
path. It makes deactivation path simpler.

Because we don't set the page->mem_cgroup pointer, we need to change
the way how memcg-level stats is working for slab pages. We can't use
mod_lruvec_page_state() helpers anymore, so switch over to
mod_lruvec_state().

* I used the following simple approach to test the performance
(stolen from another patchset by T. Harding):

    time find / -name fname-no-exist
    echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
    repeat several times

Results (I've chosen best results in several runs):

        orig       patched

real	0m0.700s   0m0.722s
user	0m0.114s   0m0.120s
sys	0m0.317s   0m0.324s

real	0m0.729s   0m0.746s
user	0m0.110s   0m0.139s
sys	0m0.320s   0m0.317s

real	0m0.745s   0m0.719s
user	0m0.108s   0m0.124s
sys	0m0.320s   0m0.323s

So it looks like the difference is not noticeable in this test.
