[patch] mm: memcontrol: use page lists for uncharge batching

From: Johannes Weiner
Date: Mon Jul 07 2014 - 14:56:11 EST


Pages are now uncharged at release time, and all sources of batched
uncharges operate on lists of pages. Directly use those lists, and
get rid of the per-task batching state.

This also batches statistics accounting, in addition to the res
counter charges, to reduce IRQ-disabling and re-enabling.
