Hugh Dickins 12d2710786 memcg: fix split_huge_page_refcounts()
This patch started off as a cleanup: __split_huge_page_refcounts() has to
cope with two scenarios, when the hugepage being split is already on LRU,
and when it is not; but why does it have to split that accounting across
three different sites?  Consolidate it in lru_add_page_tail(), handling
evictable and unevictable alike, and use standard add_page_to_lru_list()
when accounting is needed (when the head is not yet on LRU).

But a recent regression in -next, I guess the removal of PageCgroupAcctLRU
test from mem_cgroup_split_huge_fixup(), makes this now a necessary fix:
under load, the MEM_CGROUP_ZSTAT count was wrapping to a huge number,
messing up reclaim calculations and causing a freeze at rmdir of cgroup.

Add a VM_BUG_ON to mem_cgroup_lru_del_list() when we're about to wrap that
count - this has not been the only such incident.  Document that
lru_add_page_tail() is for Transparent HugePages by #ifdef around it.
