Patch series "memcg: reduce memory consumption by memcg stats", v4. Most of the memory overhead of a memcg object is due to memcg stats maintained by the kernel. Since stats updates happen in performance critical codepaths, the stats are maintained per-cpu and numa specific stats are maintained per-node * per-cpu. This drastically increase the overhead on large machines i.e. large of CPUs and multiple numa nodes. This patch series tries to reduce the overhead by at least not allocating the memory for stats which are not memcg specific. This patch (of 8): mem_cgroup_events_index is a translation table to get the right index of the memcg relevant entry for the general vm_event_item. At the moment, it is defined as integer array. However on a typical system the max entry of vm_event_item (NR_VM_EVENT_ITEMS) is 113, so we don't need to use int as storage type of the array. For now just use int8_t as type and add a BUILD_BUG_ON(). Another benefit of this change is that the translation table fits in 2 cachelines while previously it would require 8 cachelines (assuming 64 bytes cacheline).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
