Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] dma-buf: system_heap: account for system heap
 allocation in memcg

Capture dmabuf system heap allocations in memcg following prior
conversations[1][2]. Disable this behavior by default unless configured
by "dma_heap.mem_accounting" module parameter.

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/dri-devel/Z-5GZ3kJDbhgVBPG@phenom.ffwll.local/
[2] https://lore.kernel.org/all/CABdmKX2_UOENujpW0dXe0Z0x+4V3onfGDmHf1DMOXfDha6ddOA@mail.gmail.com/

Changes in v2:
- Add a module parameter to enable dma-buf cgroup accounting, disabled
  by default.
- Split system_heap logic in its own commit.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20251211193106.755485-2-echanude@redhat.com/
