This patch extracts the core logic from mem_cgroup_update_file_mapped() as
mem_cgroup_update_file_stat() and adds a wrapper.
As a planned future update, memory cgroup has to count dirty pages to
implement dirty_ratio/limit. And more, the number of dirty pages is
required to kick flusher thread to start writeback. (Now, no kick.)
This patch is preparation for it and makes other statistics implementation
clearer. Just a clean up.

An event counter MEM_CGROUP_ON_MOVE is used for quick check whether file
stat update can be done in async manner or not. Now, it use percpu
counter and for_each_possible_cpu to update.
This patch replaces for_each_possible_cpu to for_each_online_cpu and adds
necessary synchronization logic at CPU HOTPLUG.

Now, memcgroup's per cpu coutner uses for_each_possible_cpu() to get the
value. It's better to use for_each_online_cpu() and a cpu hotplug
handler.
This patch only handles statistics counter. MEM_CGROUP_ON_MOVE will be
handled in another patch.

In memory cgroup management, we sometimes have to walk through
subhierarchy of cgroup to gather informaiton, or lock something, etc.
Now, to do that, mem_cgroup_walk_tree() function is provided. It calls
given callback function per cgroup found. But the bad thing is that it
has to pass a fixed style function and argument, "void*" and it adds much
type casting to memcontrol.c.
To make the code clean, this patch replaces walk_tree() with
for_each_mem_cgroup_tree(iter, root)
An iterator style call. The good point is that iterator call doesn't have
to assume what kind of function is called under it. A bad point is that
it may cause reference-count leak if a caller use "break" from the loop by
mistake.
I think the benefit is larger. The modified code seems straigtforward and
easy to read because we don't have misterious callbacks and pointer cast.

At accounting file events per memory cgroup, we need to find memory cgroup
via page_cgroup->mem_cgroup. Now, we use lock_page_cgroup() for guarantee
pc->mem_cgroup is not overwritten while we make use of it.
But, considering the context which page-cgroup for files are accessed,
we can use alternative light-weight mutual execusion in the most case.
At handling file-caches, the only race we have to take care of is "moving"
account, IOW, overwriting page_cgroup->mem_cgroup. (See comment in the
patch)
Unlike charge/uncharge, "move" happens not so frequently. It happens only when
rmdir() and task-moving (with a special settings.)
This patch adds a race-checker for file-cache-status accounting v.s. account
moving. The new per-cpu-per-memcg counter MEM_CGROUP_ON_MOVE is added.
The routine for account move
1. Increment it before start moving
2. Call synchronize_rcu()
3. Decrement it after the end of moving.
By this, file-status-counting routine can check it needs to call
lock_page_cgroup(). In most case, I doesn't need to call it.
Following is a perf data of a process which mmap()/munmap 32MB of file cache
in a minute.
Before patch:
28.25% mmap mmap [.] main
22.64% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] page_fault
9.96% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] mem_cgroup_update_file_mapped
3.67% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] filemap_fault
3.50% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] unmap_vmas
2.99% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __do_fault
2.76% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] find_get_page
After patch:
30.00% mmap mmap [.] main
23.78% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] page_fault
5.52% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] mem_cgroup_update_file_mapped
3.81% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] unmap_vmas
3.26% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] find_get_page
3.18% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __do_fault
3.03% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] filemap_fault
2.40% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] handle_mm_fault
2.40% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_page_fault
This patch reduces memcg's cost to some extent.
(mem_cgroup_update_file_mapped is called by both of map/unmap)
Note: It seems some more improvements are required..but no idea.
maybe removing set/unset flag is required.

Presently memory cgroup accounts file-mapped by counter and flag. counter
is working in the same way with zone_stat but FileMapped flag only exists
in memcg (for helping move_account).
This flag can be updated wrongly in a case. Assume CPU0 and CPU1 and a
thread mapping a page on CPU0, another thread unmapping it on CPU1.
CPU0 CPU1
rmv rmap (mapcount 1->0)
add rmap (mapcount 0->1)
lock_page_cgroup()
memcg counter+1 (some delay)
set MAPPED FLAG.
unlock_page_cgroup()
lock_page_cgroup()
memcg counter-1
clear MAPPED flag
In the above sequence counter is properly updated but FLAG is not. This
means that representing a state by a flag which is maintained by counter
needs some special care.
To handle this, when clearing a flag, this patch check mapcount directly
and clear the flag only when mapcount == 0. (if mapcount >0, someone will
make it to zero later and flag will be cleared.)
Reverse case, dec-after-inc cannot be a problem because page_table_lock()
works well for it. (IOW, to make above sequence, 2 processes should touch
the same page at once with map/unmap.)

It appears i386 uses kmap_atomic infrastructure regardless of
CONFIG_HIGHMEM which results in a compile error when highmem is disabled.
Cure this by providing the needed few bits for both CONFIG_HIGHMEM and
CONFIG_X86_32.

page_order() is called by memory hotplug's user interface to check the
section is removable or not. (is_mem_section_removable())
It calls page_order() withoug holding zone->lock.
So, even if the caller does
if (PageBuddy(page))
ret = page_order(page) ...
The caller may hit BUG_ON().
For fixing this, there are 2 choices.
1. add zone->lock.
2. remove BUG_ON().
is_mem_section_removable() is used for some "advice" and doesn't need to
be 100% accurate. This is_removable() can be called via user program..
We don't want to take this important lock for long by user's request. So,
this patch removes BUG_ON().
