mm: memcontrol: convert page cache to a new mem_cgroup_charge() API
The try/commit/cancel protocol that memcg uses dates back to when pages
used to be uncharged upon removal from the page cache, and thus couldn't
be committed before the insertion had succeeded. Nowadays, pages are
uncharged when they are physically freed; it doesn't matter whether the
insertion was successful or not. For the page cache, the transaction
dance has become unnecessary.
Introduce a mem_cgroup_charge() function that simply charges a newly
allocated page to a cgroup and sets up page->mem_cgroup in one single
step. If the insertion fails, the caller doesn't have to do anything but
free/put the page.
Then switch the page cache over to this new API.
Subsequent patches will also convert anon pages, but it needs a bit more
prep work. Right now, memcg depends on page->mapping being already set up
at the time of charging, so that it can maintain its own MEMCG_CACHE and
MEMCG_RSS counters. For anon, page->mapping is set under the same pte
lock under which the page is publishd, so a single charge point that can
block doesn't work there just yet.
The following prep patches will replace the private memcg counters with
the generic vmstat counters, thus removing the page->mapping dependency,
then complete the transition to the new single-point charge API and delete
the old transactional scheme.
v2: leave shmem swapcache when charging fails to avoid double IO (Joonsoo)
v3: rebase on preceeding shmem simplification patch
