mem_cgroup_lruvec_online() takes lruvec, but it only needs memcg.  Since
get_scan_count(), which is the only user of this function, now possesses
pointer to memcg, let's pass memcg directly to mem_cgroup_online() instead
of picking it out of lruvec and rename the function accordingly.

<title>mm: memcontrol: charge swap to cgroup2</title>

<id>37e84351198be087335ad2b2253b35c7cc76a5ad</id>
<content type='text'>
This patchset introduces swap accounting to cgroup2.

This patch (of 7):

In the legacy hierarchy we charge memsw, which is dubious, because:

 - memsw.limit must be &gt;= memory.limit, so it is impossible to limit
   swap usage less than memory usage. Taking into account the fact that
   the primary limiting mechanism in the unified hierarchy is
   memory.high while memory.limit is either left unset or set to a very
   large value, moving memsw.limit knob to the unified hierarchy would
   effectively make it impossible to limit swap usage according to the
   user preference.

 - memsw.usage != memory.usage + swap.usage, because a page occupying
   both swap entry and a swap cache page is charged only once to memsw
   counter. As a result, it is possible to effectively eat up to
   memory.limit of memory pages *and* memsw.limit of swap entries, which
   looks unexpected.

That said, we should provide a different swap limiting mechanism for
cgroup2.

This patch adds mem_cgroup-&gt;swap counter, which charges the actual number
of swap entries used by a cgroup.  It is only charged in the unified
hierarchy, while the legacy hierarchy memsw logic is left intact.

The swap usage can be monitored using new memory.swap.current file and
limited using memory.swap.max.

Note, to charge swap resource properly in the unified hierarchy, we have
to make swap_entry_free uncharge swap only when -&gt;usage reaches zero, not
just -&gt;count, i.e.  when all references to a swap entry, including the one
taken by swap cache, are gone.  This is necessary, because otherwise
swap-in could result in uncharging swap even if the page is still in swap
cache and hence still occupies a swap entry.  At the same time, this
shouldn't break memsw counter logic, where a page is never charged twice
for using both memory and swap, because in case of legacy hierarchy we
uncharge swap on commit (see mem_cgroup_commit_charge).

<title>mm: memcontrol: clean up alloc, online, offline, free functions</title>

The creation and teardown of struct mem_cgroup is fairly messy and
that has attracted mistakes and subtle bugs before.

The main cause for this is that there is no clear model about what
needs to happen when, and that attracts more chaos. So create one:

1. mem_cgroup_alloc() should allocate struct mem_cgroup and its
   auxiliary members and initialize work items, locks etc. so that the
   object it returns is fully initialized and in a neutral state.

2. mem_cgroup_css_alloc() will use mem_cgroup_alloc() to obtain a new
   memcg object and configure it and the system according to the role
   of the new memory-controlled cgroup in the hierarchy.

3. mem_cgroup_css_online() is no longer needed to synchronize with
   iterators, but it verifies css-&gt;id which isn't available earlier.

4. mem_cgroup_css_offline() implements stuff that needs to happen upon
   the user-visible destruction of a cgroup, which includes stopping
   all user interfacing as well as releasing certain structures when
   continued memory consumption would be unexpected at that point.

5. mem_cgroup_css_free() prepares the system and the memcg object for
   the object's disappearance, neutralizes its state, and then gives
   it back to mem_cgroup_free().

6. mem_cgroup_free() releases struct mem_cgroup and auxiliary memory.

There are no more external users of struct cg_proto, flatten the
structure into struct mem_cgroup.

Since using those struct members doesn't stand out as much anymore,
add cgroup2 static branches to make it clearer which code is legacy.

On any given memcg, the kmem accounting feature has three separate
states: not initialized, structures allocated, and actively accounting
slab memory.  These are represented through a combination of the
kmem_acct_activated and kmem_acct_active flags, which is confusing.

Convert to a kmem_state enum with the states NONE, ALLOCATED, and
ONLINE.  Then rename the functions to modify the state accordingly.
This follows the nomenclature of css object states more closely.

As with rmap, with new refcounting we cannot rely on PageTransHuge() to
check if we need to charge size of huge page form the cgroup.  We need
to get information from caller to know whether it was mapped with PMD or
PTE.

We do uncharge when last reference on the page gone.  At that point if
we see PageTransHuge() it means we need to unchange whole huge page.

The tricky part is partial unmap -- when we try to unmap part of huge
page.  We don't do a special handing of this situation, meaning we don't
uncharge the part of huge page unless last user is gone or
split_huge_page() is triggered.  In case of cgroup memory pressure
happens the partial unmapped page will be split through shrinker.  This
should be good enough.
