per-zone and reclaim enhancements for memory controller: per-zone active inactive counter
This patch adds per-zone status in memory cgroup. These values are often read (as per-zone value) by page reclaiming. In current design, per-zone stat is just a unsigned long value and not an atomic value because they are modified only under lru_lock. (So, atomic_ops is not necessary.) This patch adds ACTIVE and INACTIVE per-zone status values. For handling per-zone status, this patch adds struct mem_cgroup_per_zone { ... } and some helper functions. This will be useful to add per-zone objects in mem_cgroup. This patch turns memory controller's early_init to be 0 for calling kmalloc() in initialization.
