Commit 36df6e3dbd ("cgroup: make css_rstat_updated nmi safe") used
this_cpu_cmpxchg() for the lockless insertion, and therefore required
both ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG and ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS in
the NMI guard: on archs without the latter, this_cpu_cmpxchg() falls
back to "local_irq_save() + plain cmpxchg", and local_irq_save()
cannot mask NMIs.
Commit 3309b63a22 ("cgroup: rstat: use LOCK CMPXCHG in
css_rstat_updated") later replaced this_cpu_cmpxchg() with plain
try_cmpxchg() to fix cross-CPU lockless-list corruption, but left the
NMI guard untouched. After that switch, css_rstat_updated() no longer
performs any this_cpu_*() RMW operations and only relies on the arch
having NMI-safe cmpxchg, so ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS is no
longer required in the guard.
Relax the guard accordingly so that archs which have HAVE_NMI and
ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG but not ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS
(e.g. sparc, powerpc on PPC64/BOOK3S) can benefit from the existing
CONFIG_MEMCG_NMI_SAFETY_REQUIRES_ATOMIC path. Without this, the css
is never queued in NMI on those archs, and the atomics staged by
account_{slab,kmem}_nmi_safe() are not drained by flush_nmi_stats().
