Changelog since v5:
- To simplify this patch, deferred adding routines for kernel to query dirty
usage and limits to a later patch in this series.
- Collapsed __mem_cgroup_has_dirty_limit() into mem_cgroup_has_dirty_limit().
- Renamed __mem_cgroup_dirty_param() to mem_cgroup_dirty_param().

Changelog since v4:
- Added support for hierarchical dirty limits.
- Simplified __mem_cgroup_dirty_param().
- Simplified mem_cgroup_page_stat().
- Deleted mem_cgroup_nr_pages_item enum, which was added little value.
Instead the mem_cgroup_page_stat_item enum values are used to identify
memcg dirty statistics exported to kernel.
- Fixed overflow issues in mem_cgroup_hierarchical_free_pages().

Changelog since v3:
- Previously memcontrol.c used struct vm_dirty_param and vm_dirty_param() to
advertise dirty memory limits. Now struct dirty_info and
mem_cgroup_dirty_info() is used to share dirty limits between memcontrol and
the rest of the kernel.
- __mem_cgroup_has_dirty_limit() now returns false if use_hierarchy is set.
- memcg_hierarchical_free_pages() now uses parent_mem_cgroup() and is simpler.
- created internal routine, __mem_cgroup_has_dirty_limit(), to consolidate the
logic.

Changelog since v1:
- Rename (for clarity):
- mem_cgroup_write_page_stat_item -> mem_cgroup_page_stat_item
- mem_cgroup_read_page_stat_item -> mem_cgroup_nr_pages_item
- Removed unnecessary get_ prefix from get_xxx() functions.
- Avoid lockdep warnings by using rcu_read_[un]lock() in
mem_cgroup_has_dirty_limit().
