mm: multi-gen LRU: don't spin during memcg release
When a memcg is in the process of being released mem_cgroup_tryget will
fail because its reference count has already reached 0. This can happen
during reclaim if the memcg has already been offlined, and we reclaim all
remaining pages attributed to the offlined memcg. shrink_many attempts to
skip the empty memcg in this case, and continue reclaiming from the
remaining memcgs in the old generation. If there is only one memcg
remaining, or if all remaining memcgs are in the process of being released
then shrink_many will spin until all memcgs have finished being released.
The release occurs through a workqueue, so it can take a while before
kswapd is able to make any further progress.
This fix results in reductions in kswapd activity and direct reclaim in
a test where 28 apps (working set size > total memory) are repeatedly
launched in a random sequence:
A B delta ratio(%)
allocstall_movable 5962 3539 -2423 -40.64
allocstall_normal 2661 2417 -244 -9.17
kswapd_high_wmark_hit_quickly 53152 7594 -45558 -85.71
pageoutrun 57365 11750 -45615 -79.52
