mm: memcg: don't call propagate_protected_usage() needlessly

Patch series "mm: memcg: page counters optimizations", v3.

This patchset contains 3 independent small optimizations of page counters.


This patch (of 3):

Memory protection (min/low) requires a constant tracking of protected
memory usage.  propagate_protected_usage() is called on each page counters
update and does a number of operations even in cases when the actual
memory protection functionality is not supported (e.g.  hugetlb cgroups or
memcg swap counters).

It's obviously inefficient and leads to a waste of CPU cycles.  It can be
addressed by calling propagate_protected_usage() only for the counters
which do support memory guarantees.  As of now it's only memcg->memory -
the unified memory memcg counter.
