Thomas Gleixner ec45783fce memcg: optimize exit to user space
memcg uses TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME to handle reclaiming on exit to user space. 
TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME is a multiplexing TIF bit, which is utilized by other
entities as well.

This results in a unconditional mem_cgroup_handle_over_high() call for
every invocation of resume_user_mode_work(), which is a pointless exercise
as most of the time there is no reclaim work to do.

Especially since RSEQ is used by glibc, TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME is raised quite
frequently and the empty calls show up in exit path profiling.

Optimize this by doing a quick check of the reclaim condition before
invoking it.

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: remove now-unneeded test of memcg_nr_pages_over_high==0, per Shakeel]

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.
