Introduce hierarchical per-cpu counters and use them for rss tracking to
fix the per-mm RSS tracking which has become too inaccurate for OOM
killer purposes on large many-core systems.

The approach proposed here is to replace this by the hierarchical
per-cpu counters, which bounds the inaccuracy based on the system
topology with O(N*logN).

Testing and feedback are welcome!

Thanks,

Mathieu
