mm: memcontrol: use vmalloc fallback for large kmem memcg arrays
For quick per-memcg indexing, slab caches and list_lru structures
maintain linear arrays of descriptors. As the number of concurrent
memory cgroups in the system goes up, this requires large contiguous
allocations (8k cgroups = order-5, 16k cgroups = order-6 etc.) for every
existing slab cache and list_lru, which can easily fail on loaded
systems. E.g.:
mkdir: page allocation failure: order:5, mode:0x14040c0(GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_COMP), nodemask=(null)
CPU: 1 PID: 6399 Comm: mkdir Not tainted 4.13.0-mm1-00065-g720bbe532b7c-dirty #481
Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.10.2-20170228_101828-anatol 04/01/2014

This output is from an artificial reproducer, but we have repeatedly
observed order-7 failures in production in the Facebook fleet. These
systems become useless as they cannot run more jobs, even though there
is plenty of memory to allocate 128 individual pages.
Use kvmalloc and kvzalloc to fall back to vmalloc space if these arrays
prove too large for allocating them physically contiguous.
