mm: page_counter: mitigate consequences of a page_counter underflow

When the unsigned page_counter underflows, even just by a few pages, a
cgroup will not be able to run anything afterwards and trigger the OOM
killer in a loop.

Underflows shouldn't happen, but when they do in practice, we may just be
off by a small amount that doesn't interfere with the normal operation -
consequences don't need to be that dire.

Reset the page_counter to 0 upon underflow.  We'll issue a warning that
the accounting will be off and then try to keep limping along.

[ We used to do this with the original res_counter, where it was a
  more straight-forward correction inside the spinlock section. I
  didn't carry it forward into the lockless page counters for
  simplicity, but it turns out this is quite useful in practice. ]
