[PATCH] mm: memcontrol: Expose THP events on a per-memcg basis

Currently THP allocation events data is fairly opaque, since you can
only get it system-wide. This patch makes it easier to reason about
transparent hugepage behaviour on a per-memcg basis.

For anonymous THP-backed pages, we already have MEMCG_RSS_HUGE in v1,
which is used for v1's rss_huge [sic]. This is reused here as it's
fairly involved to untangle NR_ANON_THPS right now to make it
per-memcg, since right now some of this is delegated to rmap before we
have any memcg actually assigned to the page. It's a good idea to rework
that, but let's leave untangling THP allocation for a future patch.
