Similar to vmstats, percpu caching of local vmevents leads to an accumulation of errors on non-leaf levels. This happens because some leftovers may remain in percpu caches, so that they are never propagated up by the cgroup tree and just disappear into nonexistence with on releasing of the memory cgroup. To fix this issue let's accumulate and propagate percpu vmevents values before releasing the memory cgroup similar to what we're doing with vmstats. Since on cpu hotplug we do flush percpu vmstats anyway, we can iterate only over online cpus.

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.
