BACKPORT: cgroup: make per-cgroup pressure stall tracking configurable
PSI accounts stalls for each cgroup separately and aggregates it at each
level of the hierarchy. This causes additional overhead with psi_avgs_work
being called for each cgroup in the hierarchy. psi_avgs_work has been
highly optimized, however on systems with large number of cgroups the
overhead becomes noticeable.
Systems which use PSI only at the system level could avoid this overhead
if PSI can be configured to skip per-cgroup stall accounting.
Add "cgroup_disable=pressure" kernel command-line option to allow
requesting system-wide only pressure stall accounting. When set, it
keeps system-wide accounting under /proc/pressure/ but skips accounting
for individual cgroups and does not expose PSI nodes in cgroup hierarchy.

Conflicts:
include/linux/cgroup-defs.h
kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c
1. Trivial merge conflict in cgroup-defs.h due to missing CFTYPE_DEBUG
2. Changed flags to (CFTYPE_NOT_ON_ROOT | CFTYPE_PRESSURE) in cgroup.c
because in 4.19 psi files were allowed only in non-root cgroups.
