[PATCH v11 10/15] memcg,list_lru: add function walking over all lists of a per-memcg LRU

[Vladimir Davydov <vdavydov@parallels.com>]

Sometimes it can be necessary to iterate over all memcgs' lists of the
same memcg-aware LRU. For example shrink_dcache_sb() should prune all
dentries no matter what memory cgroup they belong to. Current interface
to struct memcg_list_lru, however, only allows per-memcg LRU walks.
This patch adds the special method memcg_list_lru_walk_all() which
provides the required functionality. Note that this function does not
guarantee that all the elements will be processed in the true
least-recently-used order, in fact it simply enumerates all kmem-active
memcgs and for each of them calls list_lru_walk(), but
shrink_dcache_sb(), which is going to be the only user of this function,
does not need it.
