[PATCH v4 09/25] kmem slab accounting basic infrastructure

[Glauber Costa <glommer@parallels.com>]

This patch adds the basic infrastructure for the accounting of the slab
caches. To control that, the following files are created:

 * memory.kmem.usage_in_bytes
 * memory.kmem.limit_in_bytes
 * memory.kmem.failcnt
 * memory.kmem.max_usage_in_bytes

They have the same meaning of their user memory counterparts. They reflect
the state of the "kmem" res_counter.

The code is not enabled until a limit is set. This can be tested by the flag
"kmem_accounted". This means that after the patch is applied, no behavioral
changes exists for whoever is still using memcg to control their memory usage.

We always account to both user and kernel resource_counters. This effectively
means that an independent kernel limit is in place when the limit is set
to a lower value than the user memory. A equal or higher value means that the
user limit will always hit first, meaning that kmem is effectively unlimited.

People who want to track kernel memory but not limit it, can set this limit
to a very high number (like RESOURCE_MAX - 1page - that no one will ever hit,
or equal to the user memory)
