Currently mm_struct maintains rss_stats which are updated on page fault
and the unmapping codepaths.  For page fault codepath the updates are
cached per thread with the batch of TASK_RSS_EVENTS_THRESH which is 64. 
The reason for caching is performance for multithreaded applications
otherwise the rss_stats updates may become hotspot for such applications.

However this optimization comes with the cost of error margin in the rss
stats.  The rss_stats for applications with large number of threads can be
very skewed.  At worst the error margin is (nr_threads * 64) and we have a
lot of applications with 100s of threads, so the error margin can be very
high.  Internally we had to reduce TASK_RSS_EVENTS_THRESH to 32.

Recently we started seeing the unbounded errors for rss_stats for specific
applications which use TCP rx0cp.  It seems like vm_insert_pages()
codepath does not sync rss_stats at all.

This patch converts the rss_stats into percpu_counter to convert the error
margin from (nr_threads * 64) to approximately (nr_cpus ^ 2).  However
this conversion enable us to get the accurate stats for situations where
accuracy is more important than the cpu cost.

This patch does not make such tradeoffs - we can just use
percpu_counter_add_local() for the updates and percpu_counter_sum() (or
percpu_counter_sync() + percpu_counter_read) for the readers.  At the
moment the readers are either procfs interface, oom_killer and memory
reclaim which I think are not performance critical and should be ok with
slow read.  However I think we can make that change in a separate patch.
