Changes since -v2:
- Reworded patch 1 commit message.
This is a two part series that is a cleanup of memcg internal
counters. These two patches were originally proposed by Johannes
Weiner [1]. The original series was based on an older mmotm, so I had
to massage the patches a little. The patches are based on
mmotm-2011-02-10-16-26.
Patch 1 implements the idea that memcg only has to use signed types
for some of the counters, but not for the constant monotonically
increasing event counters where the sign-bit is a waste.
Originally proposed in [2].
Patch 2 converts the memcg fundamental page statistics counters to
native words as they should be wide enough for the expected values.
Originally proposed in [3].

1.7.3.1
From: Johannes Weiner <[email protected]>
The statistic counters are in units of pages, there is no reason to
make them 64-bit wide on 32-bit machines.
Make them native words. Since they are signed, this leaves 31 bit on
32-bit machines, which can represent roughly 8TB assuming a page size
of 4k.

1.7.3.1
From: Johannes Weiner <[email protected]>
For increasing and decreasing per-cpu cgroup usage counters it makes
sense to use signed types, as single per-cpu values might go negative
during updates. But this is not the case for only-ever-increasing
event counters.
All the counters have been signed 64-bit so far, which was enough to
count events even with the sign bit wasted.
This patch:
- divides s64 counters into signed usage counters and unsigned
monotonically increasing event counters.
- converts unsigned event counters into 'unsigned long' rather than
'u64'. This matches the type used by the /proc/vmstat event counters.
The next patch narrows the signed usage counters type (on 32-bit CPUs,
that is).
