KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 52d4b9ac0b memcg: allocate all page_cgroup at boot
Allocate all page_cgroup at boot and remove page_cgroup poitner from
struct page.  This patch adds an interface as

 struct page_cgroup *lookup_page_cgroup(struct page*)

All FLATMEM/DISCONTIGMEM/SPARSEMEM  and MEMORY_HOTPLUG is supported.

Remove page_cgroup pointer reduces the amount of memory by
 - 4 bytes per PAGE_SIZE.
 - 8 bytes per PAGE_SIZE
if memory controller is disabled. (even if configured.)

On usual 8GB x86-32 server, this saves 8MB of NORMAL_ZONE memory.
On my x86-64 server with 48GB of memory, this saves 96MB of memory.
I think this reduction makes sense.

By pre-allocation, kmalloc/kfree in charge/uncharge are removed.
This means
  - we're not necessary to be afraid of kmalloc faiulre.
    (this can happen because of gfp_mask type.)
  - we can avoid calling kmalloc/kfree.
  - we can avoid allocating tons of small objects which can be fragmented.
  - we can know what amount of memory will be used for this extra-lru handling.

I added printk message as

	"allocated %ld bytes of page_cgroup"
        "please try cgroup_disable=memory option if you don't want"

maybe enough informative for users.
