We seem to be doing same operation as existing "mem_cgroup_update_file_mapped"
function is doing to udpate some stats. Can we just reuse that? We
probably can create one core function which take index of stat to update
and update_file_mapped and other variants for memcg dirty ratio can make
use of it.
In fact instead of single function charge_dirty() accounting for
WRITEBACK, we well as other states like UNSTABLE_NFS is not very intutive.
May be we can have indivdual functions.
mem_cgroup_update_dirty()
mem_cgroup_update_writeback()
mem_cgroup_update_unstable_nfs() etc.
Thanks
Vivek
