mm: list_lru: allocate list_lru_one only when needed

In our server, we found a suspected memory leak problem.  The kmalloc-32
consumes more than 6GB of memory.  Other kmem_caches consume less than
2GB memory.

After our in-depth analysis, the memory consumption of kmalloc-32 slab
cache is the cause of list_lru_one allocation.

  crash> p memcg_nr_cache_ids
  memcg_nr_cache_ids = $2 = 24574

memcg_nr_cache_ids is very large and memory consumption of each list_lru
can be calculated with the following formula.

  num_numa_node * memcg_nr_cache_ids * 32 (kmalloc-32)

There are 4 numa nodes in our system, so each list_lru consumes ~3MB.

  crash> list super_blocks | wc -l
  952

Every mount will register 2 list lrus, one is for inode, another is for
dentry.  There are 952 super_blocks.  So the total memory is 952 * 2 * 3
MB (~5.6GB).  But the number of memory cgroup is less than 500.  So I
guess more than 12286 containers have been deployed on this machine (I do
not know why there are so many containers, it may be a user's bug or the
user really want to do that).  And memcg_nr_cache_ids has not been reduced
to a suitable value.  This can waste a lot of memory.

Now the infrastructure for dynamic list_lru_one allocation is ready, so
remove statically allocated memory code to save memory.
