As noted in the comment to commit dc6c9a35b66b5 ("mm: account pmd page
tables to the process"), "unprivileged process can allocate significant
amount of memory -- >500 MiB on x86_64 -- and stay unnoticed by
oom-killer and memory cgroup". While the above-mentioned commit fixed
the problem in case of oom-killer, this patch attempts to fix it for
memory cgroup on x86 by making pte_alloc_one and friends use
alloc_kmem_pages instead of alloc_pages so as to charge page table pages
to kmemcg.
