Vladimir Davydov 9ee11ba425 memcg: do not allow to disable tcp accounting after limit is set
There are two bits defined for cg_proto->flags - MEMCG_SOCK_ACTIVATED
and MEMCG_SOCK_ACTIVE - both are set in tcp_update_limit, but the former
is never cleared while the latter can be cleared by unsetting the limit.
This allows to disable tcp socket accounting for new sockets after it
was enabled by writing -1 to memory.kmem.tcp.limit_in_bytes while still
guaranteeing that memcg_socket_limit_enabled static key will be
decremented on memcg destruction.

This functionality looks dubious, because it is not clear what a use
case would be.  By enabling tcp accounting a user accepts the price.  If
they then find the performance degradation unacceptable, they can always
restart their workload with tcp accounting disabled.  It does not seem
there is any need to flip it while the workload is running.

Besides, it contradicts to how kmem accounting API works: writing
whatever to memory.kmem.limit_in_bytes enables kmem accounting for the
cgroup in question, after which it cannot be disabled.  Therefore one
might expect that writing -1 to memory.kmem.tcp.limit_in_bytes just
enables socket accounting w/o limiting it, which might be useful by
itself, but it isn't true.

Since this API peculiarity is not documented anywhere, I propose to drop
it.  This will allow to simplify the code by dropping cg_proto->flags.
