Patch series "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe", v2. This series converts memcg stats to be irq safe i.e. memcg stats can be updated in any context (task, softirq or hardirq) without disabling the irqs. This is still not nmi-safe on all architectures but after this series converting memcg charging and stats nmi-safe will be easier. This patch (of 7): memcg_rstat_updated() is used to track the memcg stats updates for optimizing the flushes. At the moment, it is not re-entrant safe and the callers disabled irqs before calling. However to achieve the goal of updating memcg stats without irqs, memcg_rstat_updated() needs to be re-entrant safe against irqs. This patch makes memcg_rstat_updated() re-entrant safe using this_cpu_* ops. On archs with CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS, this patch is also making memcg_rstat_updated() nmi safe.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
