[PATCH 3/3] memcg: reduce size of memcg vmstats structures

The struct memcg_vmstats and struct memcg_vmstats_percpu contains two
arrays each for events of size NR_VM_EVENT_ITEMS which can be as large
as 110. However the memcg v1 only uses 4 of those while memcg v2 uses
15. The union of both is 17. On a 64 bit system, we are wasting
approximately ((110 - 17) * 8 * 2) * (nr_cpus + 1) bytes which is
significant on large machines.

This patch reduces the size of the given structures by adding one
indirection and only stores array of events which are actually used by
the memcg code. With this patch, the size of memcg_vmstats has reduced
from 2544 bytes to 1056 bytes while the size of memcg_vmstats_percpu has
reduced from 2568 bytes to 1080 bytes.
