Subject[RFC PATCH v2 1/8] mm, memcontrol.c: make memcg lru stats thread-safe without lru_lock
Date
lru_lock needs to be held to update memcg LRU statistics.  This
requirement arises fairly naturally based on when the stats are updated
because callers are holding lru_lock already.

In preparation for allowing concurrent adds and removes from the LRU,
however, make concurrent updates to these statistics safe without
lru_lock. The lock continues to be held until later in the series, when
it is replaced with a rwlock that also disables preemption, maintaining
the assumption of __mod_lru_zone_size, which is introduced here.

Follow the existing pattern for statistics in memcontrol.h by using a
combination of per-cpu counters and atomics.

Remove the negative statistics warning from ca707239e8a7 ("mm:
update_lru_size warn and reset bad lru_size"). Although an earlier
version of this patch updated the warning to account for the error
introduced by the per-cpu counters, Hugh says this warning has not been
seen in the wild and that for simplicity's sake it should probably just
be removed.
