There are two issues with the current refill_obj_stock() code. First of
all, when nr_bytes reaches over PAGE_SIZE, it calls drain_obj_stock() to
atomically flush out remaining bytes to obj_cgroup, clear cached_objcg
and do a obj_cgroup_put(). It is likely that the same obj_cgroup will
be used again which leads to another call to drain_obj_stock() and
obj_cgroup_get() as well as atomically retrieve the available byte from
obj_cgroup. That is costly. Instead, we should just uncharge the excess
pages, reduce the stock bytes and be done with it. The drain_obj_stock()
function should only be called when obj_cgroup changes.
Secondly, when charging an object of size not less than a page in
obj_cgroup_charge(), it is possible that the remaining bytes to be
refilled to the stock will overflow a page and cause refill_obj_stock()
to uncharge 1 page. To avoid the additional uncharge in this case,
a new overfill flag is added to refill_obj_stock() which will be set
when called from obj_cgroup_charge().
