memcg: improve performance in moving charge
Try to reduce overheads in moving charge by:
- Instead of calling res_counter_uncharge() against the old cgroup in
__mem_cgroup_move_account() everytime, call res_counter_uncharge() at the end
of task migration once.
- removed css_get(&to->css) from __mem_cgroup_move_account() because callers
should have already called css_get(). And removed css_put(&to->css) too,
which was called by callers of move_account on success of move_account.
- Instead of calling __mem_cgroup_try_charge(), i.e. res_counter_charge(),
repeatedly, call res_counter_charge(PAGE_SIZE * count) in can_attach() if
possible.
- Instead of calling css_get()/css_put() repeatedly, make use of coalesce
__css_get()/__css_put() if possible.
These changes reduces the overhead from 1.7sec to 0.6sec to move charges
of 1G anonymous memory in my test environment.
