Subject: [PATCH 7/7] memcg: make mem_cgroup_begin_update_stat to use global pcpu.

Now, a per-cpu flag to show the memcg is under account moving is
now implemented as per-memcg-per-cpu.

So, when accessing this, we need to access memcg 1st. But this
function is called even when status update doesn't occur. Then,
accessing struct memcg is an overhead in such case.

This patch removes per-cpu-per-memcg MEM_CGROUP_ON_MOVE and add
per-cpu vairable to do the same work. For per-memcg, atomic
counter is added. By this, mem_cgroup_begin_update_stat() will
just access percpu variable in usual case and don't need to find & access
memcg. This reduces overhead.
