memcg: optimize exit to user space
memcg uses TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME to handle reclaiming on exit to user space. TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME is a multiplexing TIF bit, which is utilized by other entities as well. This results in a unconditional mem_cgroup_handle_over_high() call for every invocation of resume_user_mode_work(), which is a pointless exercise as most of the time there is no reclaim work to do. Especially since RSEQ is used by glibc, TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME is raised quite frequently and the empty calls show up in exit path profiling. Optimize this by doing a quick check of the reclaim condition before invoking it.
