Patch series "mm: memcg: subtree stats flushing and thresholds", v4. This series attempts to address shortages in today's approach for memcg stats flushing, namely occasionally stale or expensive stat reads. The series does so by changing the threshold that we use to decide whether to trigger a flush to be per memcg instead of global (patch 3), and then changing flushing to be per memcg (i.e. subtree flushes) instead of global (patch 5). This patch (of 5): flush_next_time is an inaccurate name. It's not the next time that periodic flushing will happen, it's rather the next time that ratelimited flushing can happen if the periodic flusher is late. Simplify its semantics by just storing the timestamp of the last flush instead, flush_last_time. Move the 2*FLUSH_TIME addition to mem_cgroup_flush_stats_ratelimited(), and add a comment explaining it. This way, all the ratelimiting semantics live in one place. No functional change intended.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
