This series removes the global swap cgroup lock. The critical section of
this lock is very short but it's still a bottle neck for mass parallel
swap workloads.
Up to 10% performance gain for tmpfs build kernel test on a
48c96t system, and no regression for other cases:
Testing using 64G brd and build with build kernel with make -j96 in 1.5G
memory cgroup using 4k folios showed below improvement (10 test run):
Before this series:
Sys time: 10809.46 (stdev 80.831491)
Real time: 171.41 (stdev 1.239894)
After this commit:
Sys time: 9621.26 (stdev 34.620000), -10.42%
Real time: 160.00 (stdev 0.497814), -6.57%
With 64k folios and 2G memcg:
Before this series:
Sys time: 8231.99 (stdev 30.030994)
Real time: 143.57 (stdev 0.577394)
After this commit:
Sys time: 7403.47 (stdev 6.270000), -10.06%
Real time: 135.18 (stdev 0.605000), -5.84%
Sequential swapout of 8G 64k zero folios (24 test run):

Updates:
- Collect Review and Ack.
- Use bit shift instead of a mixed usage of short and atomic for
emulating 2 byte xchg [Chris Li]
- Merge patch 3 into patch 4 for simplicity [Roman Gushchin].
- Drop call of mem_cgroup_disabled instead in patch 1, also fix bot
build error [Yosry Ahmed]
- Wrap the access of the atomic_t map with helpers properly, so the
emulation can be dropped to use native 2 byte xchg once available.
