memcg: helper function for relcaim from shmem.
A new call, mem_cgroup_shrink_usage() is added for shmem handling and relacing non-standard usage of mem_cgroup_charge/uncharge. Now, shmem calls mem_cgroup_charge() just for reclaim some pages from mem_cgroup. In general, shmem is used by some process group and not for global resource (like file caches). So, it's reasonable to reclaim pages from mem_cgroup where shmem is mainly used.
