mm: multi-gen LRU: optimize multiple memcgs

Browse Source 
When multiple memcgs are available, it is possible to use generations as a
frame of reference to make better choices and improve overall performance
under global memory pressure.  This patch adds a basic optimization to
select memcgs that can drop single-use unmapped clean pages first.  Doing
so reduces the chance of going into the aging path or swapping, which can
be costly.

A typical example that benefits from this optimization is a server running
mixed types of workloads, e.g., heavy anon workload in one memcg and heavy
buffered I/O workload in the other.

Though this optimization can be applied to both kswapd and direct reclaim,
it is only added to kswapd to keep the patchset manageable.  Later
improvements may cover the direct reclaim path.

While ensuring certain fairness to all eligible memcgs, proportional scans
of individual memcgs also require proper backoff to avoid overshooting
their aggregate reclaim target by too much.  Otherwise it can cause high
direct reclaim latency.  The conditions for backoff are:

1. At low priorities, for direct reclaim, if aging fairness or direct
   reclaim latency is at risk, i.e., aging one memcg multiple times or
   swapping after the target is met.
2. At high priorities, for global reclaim, if per-zone free pages are
   above respective watermarks.
