mm: memcontrol: do not miss MEMCG_MAX events for enforced allocations
Yafang Shao reported an issue related to the accounting of bpf memory:
if a bpf map is charged indirectly for memory consumed from an
interrupt context and allocations are enforced, MEMCG_MAX events are
not raised.
It's not/less of an issue in a generic case because consequent
allocations from a process context will trigger the direct reclaim and
MEMCG_MAX events will be raised. However a bpf map can belong to a
dying/abandoned memory cgroup, so there will be no allocations from a
process context and no MEMCG_MAX events will be triggered.
