mm, memcg: make refill_stock() use get_cpu_light()
Nikita reported the following memcg scheduling while atomic bug:

What happens:
refill_stock()
get_cpu_var()
drain_stock()
res_counter_uncharge()
res_counter_uncharge_until()
spin_lock() <== boom
Fix it by replacing get/put_cpu_var() with get/put_cpu_light().
