Subject: mm/memcg: protect memcg_stock with a local_lock_t

The members of the per-CPU structure memcg_stock_pcp are protected by
disabling interrupts.  This is not working on PREEMPT_RT because it
creates atomic context in which actions are performed which require
preemptible context.  One example is obj_cgroup_release().

The IRQ-disable sections can be replaced with local_lock_t which preserves
the explicit disabling of interrupts while keeps the code preemptible on
PREEMPT_RT.

drain_obj_stock() drops a reference on obj_cgroup which leads to an
invocat= ion of obj_cgroup_release() if it is the last object.  This in
turn leads to recursive locking of the local_lock_t.  To avoid this,
obj_cgroup_release() = is invoked outside of the locked section.

obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages() can be invoked with the local_lock_t acquired
a= nd without it.  This will lead later to a recursion in refill_stock(). 
To avoid the locking recursion provide obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages_locked()
which uses the locked version of refill_stock().

- Replace disabling interrupts for memcg_stock with a local_lock_t.

- Let drain_obj_stock() return the old struct obj_cgroup which is passed
  to obj_cgroup_put() outside of the locked section.

- Provide obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages_locked() which uses the locked
  version of refill_stock() to avoid recursive locking in
  drain_obj_stock().
