Roman Gushchin 5035ebc644 mm: shrinkers: introduce debugfs interface for memory shrinkers
This commit introduces the /sys/kernel/debug/shrinker debugfs interface
which provides an ability to observe the state of individual kernel memory
shrinkers.

Because the feature adds some memory overhead (which shouldn't be large
unless there is a huge amount of registered shrinkers), it's guarded by a
config option (enabled by default).

This commit introduces the "count" interface for each shrinker registered
in the system.

The output is in the following format:
<cgroup inode id> <nr of objects on node 0> <nr of objects on node 1>...
<cgroup inode id> <nr of objects on node 0> <nr of objects on node 1>...
...

To reduce the size of output on machines with many thousands cgroups, if
the total number of objects on all nodes is 0, the line is omitted.

If the shrinker is not memcg-aware or CONFIG_MEMCG is off, 0 is printed as
cgroup inode id.  If the shrinker is not numa-aware, 0's are printed for
all nodes except the first one.

This commit gives debugfs entries simple numeric names, which are not very
convenient.  The following commit in the series will provide shrinkers
with more meaningful names.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
