Subject: [PATCH v1 6/9] memcg: sleep during flushing stats in safe contexts
Currently, all contexts that flush memcg stats do so with sleeping not
allowed. Some of these contexts are perfectly safe to sleep in, such as
reading cgroup files from userspace or the background periodic flusher.
Refactor the code to make mem_cgroup_flush_stats() non-atomic (aka
sleepable), and provide a separate atomic version. The atomic version is
used in reclaim, refault, writeback, and in mem_cgroup_usage(). All
other code paths are left to use the non-atomic version. This includes
callbacks for userspace reads and the periodic flusher.
Since refault is the only caller of mem_cgroup_flush_stats_ratelimited(),
this function is changed to call the atomic version of
mem_cgroup_flush_stats(). Reclaim and refault code paths are modified
to do non-atomic flushing in separate later patches -- so
mem_cgroup_flush_stats_ratelimited() will eventually become non-atomic.
