UPSTREAM: cgroup: rename cgroup_rstat_flush_"irqsafe" to "atomic"

Patch series "memcg: avoid flushing stats atomically where possible", v3.

rstat flushing is an expensive operation that scales with the number of
cpus and the number of cgroups in the system.  The purpose of this series
is to minimize the contexts where we flush stats atomically.

Patches 1 and 2 are cleanups requested during reviews of prior versions of
this series.

Patch 3 makes sure we never try to flush from within an irq context.

Patches 4 to 7 introduce separate variants of mem_cgroup_flush_stats() for
atomic and non-atomic flushing, and make sure we only flush the stats
atomically when necessary.

Patch 8 is a slightly tangential optimization that limits the work done by
rstat flushing in some scenarios.

This patch (of 8):

cgroup_rstat_flush_irqsafe() can be a confusing name.  It may read as
"irqs are disabled throughout", which is what the current implementation
does (currently under discussion [1]), but is not the intention.  The
intention is that this function is safe to call from atomic contexts.
Name it as such.
