[PATCH v2 07/28] mm: memcg/slab: introduce mem_cgroup_from_obj()

[Roman Gushchin <guro@fb.com>]

Sometimes we need to get a memcg pointer from a charged kernel object.
The right way to get it depends on whether it's a proper slab object
or it's backed by raw pages (e.g. it's a vmalloc alloction). In the
first case the kmem_cache->memcg_params.memcg indirection should be
used; in other cases it's just page->mem_cgroup.

To simplify this task and hide the implementation details let's
introduce a mem_cgroup_from_obj() helper, which takes a pointer
to any kernel object and returns a valid memcg pointer or NULL.

Passing a kernel address rather than a pointer to a page will allow
to use this helper for per-object (rather than per-page) tracked
objects in the future.

The caller is still responsible to ensure that the returned memcg
isn't going away underneath: take the rcu read lock, cgroup mutex etc;
depending on the context.

mem_cgroup_from_kmem() defined in mm/list_lru.c is now obsolete
and can be removed.
