memcg: skip memcg kmem allocations in specified code regions 

Create a mechanism that skip memcg allocations during certain pieces of
our core code.  It basically works in the same way as
preempt_disable()/preempt_enable(): By marking a region under which all
allocations will be accounted to the root memcg.

We need this to prevent races in early cache creation, when we
allocate data using caches that are not necessarily created already.

/*
* During the creation a new cache, we need to disable our accounting mechanism
* altogether. This is true even if we are not creating, but rather just
* enqueing new caches to be created.
*
* This is because that process will trigger allocations; some visible, like
* explicit kmallocs to auxiliary data structures, name strings and internal
* cache structures; some well concealed, like INIT_WORK() that can allocate
* objects during debug.
*
* If any allocation happens during memcg_kmem_get_cache, we will recurse back
* to it. This may not be a bounded recursion: since the first cache creation
* failed to complete (waiting on the allocation), we'll just try to create the
* cache again, failing at the same point.
*
* memcg_kmem_get_cache is prepared to abort after seeing a positive count of
* memcg_kmem_skip_account. So we enclose anything that might allocate memory
* inside the following two functions.
