Subject: [PATCH v2 4/5] mm/memcontrol: Perform all stock drain in current CPU

When drain_all_stock() is called, some CPUs will be required to have their
per-CPU caches drained. This currently happens by scheduling a call to
drain_local_stock() to run in each affected CPU.

This, as a consequence, may end up scheduling work to CPUs that are
isolated, and therefore should have as little interruption as possible.

In order to avoid this, run all CPUs stock drain directly from the
current CPU. This should be fine as long as drain_all_stock() runs fast
enough so it don't often cause contention on consume_stock(),
refill_stock(), mod_objcg_state(), consume_obj_stock() or 
refill_obj_stock(). 

Also, since drain_all_stock() will be able to run on a remote CPU, protect
memcg_hotplug_cpu_dead() with stock_lock.
