memcg: convert memcg->socket_pressure to u64

memcg->socket_pressure is initialised with jiffies when the memcg is
created.

Once vmpressure detects that the cgroup is under memory pressure, the
field is updated with jiffies + HZ to signal the fact to the socket layer
and suppress memory allocation for one second.

Otherwise, the field is not updated.

mem_cgroup_under_socket_pressure() uses time_before() to check if jiffies
is less than memcg->socket_pressure, and this has a bug on 32-bit kernel.

  if (time_before(jiffies, memcg->socket_pressure))
          return true;

As time_before() casts the final result to long, the acceptable delta
between two timestamps is 2 ^ (BITS_PER_LONG - 1).

On 32-bit kernel with CONFIG_HZ=1000, this is about 24 days.

  >>> (2 ** 31) / 1000 / 60 / 60 / 24
  24.855134814814818

Once 24 days have passed since the last update of socket_pressure,
mem_cgroup_under_socket_pressure() starts to lie until the next 24 days
pass.

We don't need to worry about this on 64-bit machines unless they serve for
300 million years.

  >>> (2 ** 63) / 1000 / 60 / 60 / 24 / 365
  292471208.6775361

Let's convert memcg->socket_pressure to u64.

Performance teting:

I don't have a real 32-bit machine so this is a result on QEMU, but
with/without the u64 jiffie patch, the time spent in
mem_cgroup_under_socket_pressure() was 1~5us and I didn't see any
measurable delta.

no patch applied:

u64 jiffies patch applied:
iperf3   308 [001]   330.669370:

                c12ddba1 mem_cgroup_under_socket_pressure+0x1

iperf3   308 [001]   330.669371:
probe:mem_cgroup_under_socket_pressure__return: (c12ddba0 <- c1ce98bf)
iperf3   308 [001]   330.669382:
probe:mem_cgroup_under_socket_pressure: (c12ddba0)
                c12ddba1 mem_cgroup_under_socket_pressure+0x1

iperf3   308 [001]   330.669384:
probe:mem_cgroup_under_socket_pressure__return: (c12ddba0 <- c1ce98bf)

So the u64 approach is good enough.
