memcg: nmi safe memcg stats for specific archs

Browse source

There are archs which have NMI but does not support this_cpu_* ops safely
in the nmi context but they support safe atomic ops in nmi context.  For
such archs, let's add infra to use atomic ops for the memcg stats which
can be updated in nmi.

At the moment, the memcg stats which get updated in the objcg charging
path are MEMCG_KMEM, NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE_B & NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE_B. 
Rather than adding support for all memcg stats to be nmi safe, let's just
add infra to make these three stats nmi safe which this patch is doing.
