memcg: extract memcg_vmstats from struct mem_cgroup

Patch series "memcg: reduce memory overhead of memory cgroups".

Currently a lot of memory is wasted to maintain the vmevents for memory
cgroups as we have multiple arrays of size NR_VM_EVENT_ITEMS which can be
as large as 110.  However memcg code uses small portion of those entries.
This patch series eliminate this overhead by removing the unneeded vmevent
entries from memory cgroup data structures.

This patch (of 3):

This is a preparatory patch to reduce the memory overhead of memory
cgroup. The struct memcg_vmstats is the largest object embedded into the
struct mem_cgroup. This patch extracts struct memcg_vmstats from struct
mem_cgroup to ease the following patches in reducing the size of struct
memcg_vmstats.
