memcg: fix race in file_mapped accouting flag management
Presently memory cgroup accounts file-mapped by counter and flag. counter
is working in the same way with zone_stat but FileMapped flag only exists
in memcg (for helping move_account).
This flag can be updated wrongly in a case. Assume CPU0 and CPU1 and a
thread mapping a page on CPU0, another thread unmapping it on CPU1.
CPU0 CPU1
rmv rmap (mapcount 1->0)
add rmap (mapcount 0->1)
lock_page_cgroup()
memcg counter+1 (some delay)
set MAPPED FLAG.
unlock_page_cgroup()
lock_page_cgroup()
memcg counter-1
clear MAPPED flag
In the above sequence counter is properly updated but FLAG is not. This
means that representing a state by a flag which is maintained by counter
needs some special care.
To handle this, when clearing a flag, this patch check mapcount directly
and clear the flag only when mapcount == 0. (if mapcount >0, someone will
make it to zero later and flag will be cleared.)
Reverse case, dec-after-inc cannot be a problem because page_table_lock()
works well for it. (IOW, to make above sequence, 2 processes should touch
the same page at once with map/unmap.)
