Johannes Weiner 8e8ae64524 mm: memcontrol: hook up vmpressure to socket pressure
Let the networking stack know when a memcg is under reclaim pressure so
that it can clamp its transmit windows accordingly.

Whenever the reclaim efficiency of a cgroup's LRU lists drops low enough
for a MEDIUM or HIGH vmpressure event to occur, assert a pressure state
in the socket and tcp memory code that tells it to curb consumption
growth from sockets associated with said control group.

Traditionally, vmpressure reports for the entire subtree of a memcg
under pressure, which drops useful information on the individual groups
reclaimed.  However, it's too late to change the userinterface, so add a
second reporting mode that reports on the level of reclaim instead of at
the level of pressure, and use that report for sockets.

vmpressure events are naturally edge triggered, so for hysteresis assert
socket pressure for a second to allow for subsequent vmpressure events
to occur before letting the socket code return to normal.

This will likely need finetuning for a wider variety of workloads, but
for now stick to the vmpressure presets and keep hysteresis simple.
