mm: vmscan: distinguish between memcg triggering reclaim and memcg being scanned
Memory cgroup hierarchies are currently handled completely outside of the traditional reclaim code, which is invoked with a single memory cgroup as an argument for the whole call stack. Subsequent patches will switch this code to do hierarchical reclaim, so there needs to be a distinction between a) the memory cgroup that is triggering reclaim due to hitting its limit and b) the memory cgroup that is being scanned as a child of a). This patch introduces a struct mem_cgroup_zone that contains the combination of the memory cgroup and the zone being scanned, which is then passed down the stack instead of the zone argument.
