Mina Almasry f477619990 hugetlb: add hugetlb.*.numa_stat file
For hugetlb backed jobs/VMs it's critical to understand the numa
information for the memory backing these jobs to deliver optimal
performance.

Currently this technically can be queried from /proc/self/numa_maps, but
there are significant issues with that.  Namely:

1. Memory can be mapped or unmapped.

2. numa_maps are per process and need to be aggregated across all
   processes in the cgroup.  For shared memory this is more involved as
   the userspace needs to make sure it doesn't double count shared
   mappings.

3. I believe querying numa_maps needs to hold the mmap_lock which adds
   to the contention on this lock.

For these reasons I propose simply adding hugetlb.*.numa_stat file,
   which shows the numa information of the cgroup similarly to
   memory.numa_stat.

On cgroup-v2:
   cat /sys/fs/cgroup/unified/test/hugetlb.2MB.numa_stat
   total=2097152 N0=2097152 N1=0

On cgroup-v1:
   cat /sys/fs/cgroup/hugetlb/test/hugetlb.2MB.numa_stat
   total=2097152 N0=2097152 N1=0
   hierarichal_total=2097152 N0=2097152 N1=0

This patch was tested manually by allocating hugetlb memory and querying
the hugetlb.*.numa_stat file of the cgroup and its parents.

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.
