mm/memcg: disable migration instead of preemption in drain_all_stock().
Before the for-each-CPU loop, preemption is disabled so that so that
drain_local_stock() can be invoked directly instead of scheduling a
worker. Ensuring that drain_local_stock() completed on the local CPU is
not correctness problem. It _could_ be that the charging path will be
forced to reclaim memory because cached charges are still waiting for
their draining.
Disabling preemption before invoking drain_local_stock() is problematic
on PREEMPT_RT due to the sleeping locks involved. To ensure that no CPU
migrations happens across for_each_online_cpu() it is enouhg to use
migrate_disable() which disables migration and keeps context preemptible
to a sleeping lock can be acquired. A race with CPU hotplug is not a
problem because pcp data is not going away. In the worst case we just
schedule draining of an empty stock.
Use migrate_disable() instead of get_cpu() around the
for_each_online_cpu() loop.
