Allow a memcg parameter to be passed during cache creation.
The slub allocator will only merge caches that belong to
the same memcg.

Default function is created as a wrapper, passing NULL
to the memcg version. We only merge caches that belong
to the same memcg.

 From the memcontrol.c side, 3 helper functions are created:

  1) memcg_css_id: because slub needs a unique cache name
    for sysfs. Since this is visible, but not the canonical
    location for slab data, the cache name is not used, the
    css_id should suffice.

  2) mem_cgroup_register_cache: is responsible for assigning
    a unique index to each cache, and other general purpose
    setup. The index is only assigned for the root caches. All
    others are assigned index == -1.

  3) mem_cgroup_release_cache: can be called from the root cache
    destruction, and will release the index for other caches.

This index mechanism was developed by Suleiman Souhlal.

Do the kmalloc caches get their id registered correctly?


For the slub, it seems to work okay. But I had to use the trick that for the memcg-specific kmalloc caches, they come from the normal caches rather than the special kmalloc pool. Since we are already paying the penalty of dealing with the memcg finding, I hope this is okay.

For the slab, my investigation wasn't that deep. But basic functionality works okay.
