memcg: protect prev_priority 

Currently, mem_cgroup doesn't have own lock and almost its member doesn't
need.  (e.g.  mem_cgroup->info is protected by zone lock, mem_cgroup->stat
is per cpu variable)

However, there is one explict exception.  mem_cgroup->prev_priorit need
lock, but doesn't protect.  Luckly, this is NOT bug because prev_priority
isn't used for current reclaim code.

However, we plan to use prev_priority future again.  Therefore, fixing is
better.

In addition, we plan to reuse this lock for another member.  Then
"reclaim_param_lock" name is better than "prev_priority_lock".
