[PATCH 3.5/13] memcg: make page_cgroup flags to be atomic

Sorry, this patch is comes after "3".

==
This patch makes page_cgroup->flags to be atomic_ops and define
functions (and macros) to access it.

This patch itself makes memcg slow but this patch's final purpose is
to remove lock_page_cgroup() and allowing fast access to page_cgroup.
(And total performance will increase after all patches applied.)

Before trying to modify memory resource controller, this atomic operation
on flags is necessary. Most of flags in this patch is for LRU and modfied
under mz->lru_lock but we'll add another flags which is not for LRU soon.
So we use atomic version here.

Changelog: (v3) -> (v4)
- removed unsued operations.
- adjusted to new ctype MEM_CGROUP_CHARGE_TYPE_SHMEM

Changelog: (v2) -> (v3)
- renamed macros and flags to be longer name.
- added comments.
- added "default bit set" for File, Shmem, Anon.

Changelog: (preview) -> (v1):
- patch ordering is changed.
- Added macro for defining functions for Test/Set/Clear bit.
- made the names of flags shorter.
