mm, slab: extend slab/shrink to shrink all memcg caches

mm, slab: extend slab/shrink to shrink all memcg caches

Currently, a value of '1" is written to /sys/kernel/slab/<slab>/shrink
file to shrink the slab by flushing out all the per-cpu slabs and free
slabs in partial lists.  This can be useful to squeeze out a bit more
memory under extreme condition as well as making the active object counts
in /proc/slabinfo more accurate.

This usually applies only to the root caches, as the SLUB_MEMCG_SYSFS_ON
option is usually not enabled and "slub_memcg_sysfs=1" not set.  Even if
memcg sysfs is turned on, it is too cumbersome and impractical to manage
all those per-memcg sysfs files in a real production system.

So there is no practical way to shrink memcg caches.  Fix this by enabling
a proper write to the shrink sysfs file of the root cache to scan all the
available memcg caches and shrink them as well.  For a non-root memcg
cache (when SLUB_MEMCG_SYSFS_ON or slub_memcg_sysfs is on), only that
cache will be shrunk when written.

On a 2-socket 64-core 256-thread arm64 system with 64k page after
a parallel kernel build, the the amount of memory occupied by slabs
before shrinking slabs were:

 # grep task_struct /proc/slabinfo
 task_struct        53137  53192   4288   61    4 : tunables    0    0
 0 : slabdata    872    872      0
 # grep "^S[lRU]" /proc/meminfo
 Slab:            3936832 kB
 SReclaimable:     399104 kB
 SUnreclaim:      3537728 kB

After shrinking slabs (by echoing "1" to all shrink files):

 # grep "^S[lRU]" /proc/meminfo
 Slab:            1356288 kB
 SReclaimable:     263296 kB
 SUnreclaim:      1092992 kB
 # grep task_struct /proc/slabinfo
 task_struct         2764   6832   4288   61    4 : tunables    0    0
 0 : slabdata    112    112      0
