[PATCH v3 6/7] mm: list_lru: introduce folio_memcg_list_lru_alloc()

[Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org>]

memcg_list_lru_alloc() is called every time an object that may end up
on the list_lru is created. It needs to quickly check if the list_lru
heads for the memcg already exist, and allocate them when they don't.

Doing this with folio objects is tricky: folio_memcg() is not stable
and requires either RCU protection or pinning the cgroup. But it's
desirable to make the existence check lightweight under RCU, and only
pin the memcg when we need to allocate list_lru heads and may block.

In preparation for switching the THP shrinker to list_lru, add a
helper function for allocating list_lru heads coming from a folio.
