mm/vmstat: convert NUMA statistics to basic NUMA counters

NUMA statistics are maintained on the zone level for hits, misses, foreign
etc but nothing relies on them being perfectly accurate for functional
correctness. The counters are used by userspace to get a general overview
of a workloads NUMA behaviour but the page allocator incurs a high cost to
maintain perfect accuracy similar to what is required for a vmstat like
NR_FREE_PAGES. There even is a sysctl vm.numa_stat to allow userspace to
turn off the collection of NUMA statistics like NUMA_HIT.

This patch converts NUMA_HIT and friends to be NUMA events with similar
accuracy to VM events. There is a possibility that slight errors will be
introduced but the overall trend as seen by userspace will be similar.
The counters are no longer updated from vmstat_refresh context as it is
unnecessary overhead for counters that may never be read by userspace.
Note that counters could be maintained at the node level to save space but
it would have a user-visible impact due to /proc/zoneinfo.

mm/page_alloc: split per cpu page lists and zone stats

mm/page_alloc: split per cpu page lists and zone stats

The PCP (per-cpu page allocator in page_alloc.c) shares locking
requirements with vmstat and the zone lock which is inconvenient and
causes some issues. For example, the PCP list and vmstat share the same
per-cpu space meaning that it's possible that vmstat updates dirty cache
lines holding per-cpu lists across CPUs unless padding is used. Second,
PREEMPT_RT does not want to disable IRQs for too long in the page
allocator.

This series splits the locking requirements and uses locks types more
suitable for PREEMPT_RT, reduces the time when special locking is required
for stats and reduces the time when IRQs need to be disabled on
!PREEMPT_RT kernels.

Why local_lock? PREEMPT_RT considers the following sequence to be unsafe
as documented in Documentation/locking/locktypes.rst

local_irq_disable();
spin_lock(&lock);

The pcp allocator has this sequence for rmqueue_pcplist (local_irq_save)
-> __rmqueue_pcplist -> rmqueue_bulk (spin_lock). While it's possible to
separate this out, it generally means there are points where we enable
IRQs and reenable them again immediately. To prevent a migration and the
per-cpu pointer going stale, migrate_disable is also needed. That is a
custom lock that is similar, but worse, than local_lock. Furthermore, on
PREEMPT_RT, it's undesirable to leave IRQs disabled for too long. By
converting to local_lock which disables migration on PREEMPT_RT, the
locking requirements can be separated and start moving the protections for
PCP, stats and the zone lock to PREEMPT_RT-safe equivalent locking. As a
bonus, local_lock also means that PROVE_LOCKING does something useful.

After that, it's obvious that zone_statistics incurs too much overhead and
leaves IRQs disabled for longer than necessary on !PREEMPT_RT kernels.
zone_statistics uses perfectly accurate counters requiring IRQs be
disabled for parallel RMW sequences when inaccurate ones like vm_events
would do. The series makes the NUMA statistics (NUMA_HIT and friends)
inaccurate counters that then require no special protection on
!PREEMPT_RT.

The bulk page allocator can then do stat updates in bulk with IRQs enabled
which should improve the efficiency. Technically, this could have been
done without the local_lock and vmstat conversion work and the order
simply reflects the timing of when different series were implemented.

Finally, there are places where we conflate IRQs being disabled for the
PCP with the IRQ-safe zone spinlock. The remainder of the series reduces
the scope of what is protected by disabled IRQs on !PREEMPT_RT kernels.
By the end of the series, page_alloc.c does not call local_irq_save so the
locking scope is a bit clearer. The one exception is that modifying
NR_FREE_PAGES still happens in places where it's known the IRQs are
disabled as it's harmless for PREEMPT_RT and would be expensive to split
the locking there.

No performance data is included because despite the overhead of the stats,
it's within the noise for most workloads on !PREEMPT_RT. However, Jesper
Dangaard Brouer ran a page allocation microbenchmark on a E5-1650 v4 @
3.60GHz CPU on the first version of this series. Focusing on the array
variant of the bulk page allocator reveals the following.

(CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-1650 v4 @ 3.60GHz)
ARRAY variant: time_bulk_page_alloc_free_array: step=bulk size

Baseline Patched
1 56.383 54.225 (+3.83%)
2 40.047 35.492 (+11.38%)
3 37.339 32.643 (+12.58%)
4 35.578 30.992 (+12.89%)
8 33.592 29.606 (+11.87%)
16 32.362 28.532 (+11.85%)

64 30.633 27.252 (+11.04%)
128 30.596 27.090 (+11.46%)

While this is a positive outcome, the series is more likely to be
interesting to the RT people in terms of getting parts of the PREEMPT_RT
tree into mainline.

This patch (of 9):

The per-cpu page allocator lists and the per-cpu vmstat deltas are stored
in the same struct per_cpu_pages even though vmstats have no direct impact
on the per-cpu page lists. This is inconsistent because the vmstats for a
node are stored on a dedicated structure. The bigger issue is that the
per_cpu_pages structure is not cache-aligned and stat updates either cache
conflict with adjacent per-cpu lists incurring a runtime cost or padding
is required incurring a memory cost.

This patch splits the per-cpu pagelists and the vmstat deltas into
separate structures. It's mostly a mechanical conversion but some
variable renaming is done to clearly distinguish the per-cpu pages
structure (pcp) from the vmstats (pzstats).

Superficially, this appears to increase the size of the per_cpu_pages
structure but the movement of expire fills a structure hole so there is no
impact overall.

mm: /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh skip checking known negative stats

vmstat_refresh() can occasionally catch nr_zone_write_pending and
nr_writeback when they are transiently negative. The reason is partly
that the interrupt which decrements them in test_clear_page_writeback()
can come in before __test_set_page_writeback() got to increment them;
but transient negatives are still seen even when that is prevented, and
I am not yet certain why (but see Roman's note below). Those stats are
not buggy, they have never been seen to drift away from 0 permanently:
so just avoid the annoyance of showing a warning on them.

Similarly avoid showing a warning on nr_free_cma: CMA users have seen
that one reported negative from /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh too, but it
does drift away permanently: I believe that's because its incrementation
and decrementation are decided by page migratetype, but the migratetype
of a pageblock is not guaranteed to be constant.

Roman Gushchin points out:
"For performance reasons, vmstat counters are incremented and
decremented using per-cpu batches. vmstat_refresh() flushes the
per-cpu batches on all CPUs, to get values as accurate as possible;
but this method is not atomic, so the resulting value is not always
precise.

As a consequence, for those counters whose actual value is close to 0,
a small negative value may occasionally be reported. If the value is
small and the state is transient, it is not an indication of an error"
