Information like free memory and swap as well as kill reason would be
useful for understanding regressions in the number of lmk kills in the
field.
Bug: 168117803

Test: statsd_testdrive 51, load with lmk_unit_test
If the first PSI event triggers a kill, lmkd won't resume polling
immediately after the process has died. Instead, it will wait until the
next PSI event to resume the polling which is too late when the device
is under memory pressure. This happens if data communication with AMS
happens after previous polling window expired, in which case paused
handler gets reset and polling does not resume after the kill.
Fix this by changing pause handler reset logic.

It seems we have chance that file_base_lru is zero.
Avoid it by adding 1.

When a device is thrashing the file cache, workingset refaults can
grow slowly because of variant reasons. Current thrashing detection
mechanism could reset the thrashing counter frequently as it relies
on presence of reclaim activity, however refaults can keep increasing
even when the device is not actively reclaiming. In addition, the
thrashing counter gets reset when conditions require a kill but lmkd
could not find an eligible process to be killed. This is problematic
because when this happens thrashing is being ignored.
Use a fixed 1 sec periods to aggregate the thrashing counter. Also we
need to keep monitoring thrashing counter while retrying as someone
could release the memory to mitigate the thrashing. If thrashing
counter is greater than the limit at the end of the 1 sec period this
means lmkd failed to find an eligible process to kill. In this case
we store accumulated thrashing in case a new eligible process appears
until accumulated thrashing is less that the limit or we miss an
entire 1 sec window.

When swap is depleted file cache thrashing might result in allocations
quickly pushing memory below low watermark and kswapd quickly pushing
it back above high watermark. In this situation free memory stays above
high watermark most of the time and lmkd during its periodic wake-ups
has low chance of detecting low memory conditions. Add a 15% margin
for high watermark which would allow lmkd to kill if swap is low,some
memory was reclaimed since the last wakeup and free memory is just
above the high watermark limit.
