[Devel] [PATCH rh7] mm/memcg: optimize mem_cgroup_enough_memory()

mem_cgroup_enough_memory() iterates memcg's subtree to account
'MEM_CGROUP_STAT_CACHE - MEM_CGROUP_STAT_SHMEM'.

Fortunately we can just read memcg->cache counter instead
as it's hierarchical (includes subgroups) and doesn't account
shmem.
