mm: shrinkers: introduce debugfs interface for memory shrinkers
This commit introduces the /sys/kernel/debug/shrinker debugfs interface
which provides an ability to observe the state of individual kernel memory
shrinkers.
Because the feature adds some memory overhead (which shouldn't be large
unless there is a huge amount of registered shrinkers), it's guarded by a
config option (enabled by default).
This commit introduces the "count" interface for each shrinker registered
in the system.
The output is in the following format:
<cgroup inode id> <nr of objects on node 0> <nr of objects on node 1>...
<cgroup inode id> <nr of objects on node 0> <nr of objects on node 1>...
...
To reduce the size of output on machines with many thousands cgroups, if
the total number of objects on all nodes is 0, the line is omitted.
If the shrinker is not memcg-aware or CONFIG_MEMCG is off, 0 is printed as
cgroup inode id. If the shrinker is not numa-aware, 0's are printed for
all nodes except the first one.
This commit gives debugfs entries simple numeric names, which are not very
convenient. The following commit in the series will provide shrinkers
with more meaningful names.
