memcg: add file-based RSS accounting
Add file RSS tracking per memory cgroup We currently don't track file RSS, the RSS we report is actually anon RSS. All the file mapped pages, come in through the page cache and get accounted there. This patch adds support for accounting file RSS pages. It should 1. Help improve the metrics reported by the memory resource controller 2. Will form the basis for a future shared memory accounting heuristic that has been proposed by Kamezawa. Unfortunately, we cannot rename the existing "rss" keyword used in memory.stat to "anon_rss". We however, add "mapped_file" data and hope to educate the end user through documentation.
