Subject: [PATCH v5 09/11] mm: memcontrol: use obj_cgroup APIs to charge the LRU pages

We will reuse the obj_cgroup APIs to charge the LRU pages. Finally,
page->memcg_data will have 2 different meanings.

- For the slab pages, page->memcg_data points to an object cgroups
vector.

- For the kmem pages (exclude the slab pages) and the LRU pages,
page->memcg_data points to an object cgroup.

In this patch, we reuse obj_cgroup APIs to charge LRU pages. In the end,
The page cache cannot prevent long-living objects from pinning the original
memory cgroup in the memory.

At the same time we also changed the rules of page and objcg or memcg
binding stability. The new rules are as follows.

For a page any of the following ensures page and objcg binding stability:

- the page lock
- LRU isolation
- lock_page_memcg()
- exclusive reference

Based on the stable binding of page and objcg, for a page any of the
following ensures page and memcg binding stability:

- objcg_lock
- cgroup_mutex
- the lruvec lock
- the split queue lock (only THP page)

If the caller only want to ensure that the page counters of memcg are
updated correctly, ensure that the binding stability of page and objcg
is sufficient.

Admittedly, this predicate alone caught my eye, why it did not also
check root_mem_cgroup->objcg_list.
However, deeper look reveals it's purpose is to avoid missing uncharges
of pages that were charged in non-root memcg and later re-associated
upwards after reparenting.
So it's like obj_cgroup_root_origin() (I'm not suggesting a rename, just
illustrating the understanding).

get_obj_cgroup_from_current() gains some complexity but it still holds
that in root memcg neither kernel objects nor LRU pages are charged.
At the same time, reparented kernel objects or LRU pages are properly
uncharged.

These parts are

(I did not look into the locking guarantees with the new API though.)

Aside from two questions, which I raised in the comments to previous patches
in the series:
1) perf impact,
2) should we open-code the reparenting procedure to show the locking in a more
explicit ways?
