The vmstat threshold is 32 (MEMCG_CHARGE_BATCH), so the type of s32
of lruvec_stat_cpu is enough. And introduce struct per_cpu_lruvec_stat
to optimize memory usage.
The size of struct lruvec_stat is 304 bytes on 64 bits system. As it
is a per-cpu structure. So with this patch, we can save 304 / 2 * ncpu
bytes per-memcg per-node where ncpu is the number of the possible CPU.
If there are c memory cgroup (include dying cgroup) and n NUMA node in
the system. Finally, we can save (152 * ncpu * c * n) bytes.

Changes in v1 -> v2:
- Update the commit log to point out how many bytes that we can save.
