Subject: fs, mm: account filp and names caches to kmemcg

The allocations from filp and names kmem caches can be directly triggered
by user space applications.  A buggy application can consume a significant
amount of unaccounted system memory.  Though we have not noticed such
buggy applications in our production but upon close inspection, we found
that a lot of machines spend very significant amount of memory on these
caches.  So, these caches should be accounted to kmemcg.
