parentmemcg: make cgroup_event deal with mem_cgroup instead of cgroup_subsys_state (diff)

memcg: rename cgroup_event to mem_cgroup_event
cgroup_event is only available in memcg now. Let's brand it that way. While at it, add a comment encouraging deprecation of the feature and remove the respective section from cgroup documentation. This patch is cosmetic. v3: Typo update as per Li Zefan. v2: Index in cgroups.txt updated accordingly as suggested by Li Zefan.

-2.4 Notification API
---------------------
-
-There is mechanism which allows to get notifications about changing
-status of a cgroup.
-
-To register a new notification handler you need to:
- - create a file descriptor for event notification using eventfd(2);
- - open a control file to be monitored (e.g. memory.usage_in_bytes);
- - write "<event_fd> <control_fd> <args>" to cgroup.event_control.
- Interpretation of args is defined by control file implementation;
-
-eventfd will be woken up by control file implementation or when the
-cgroup is removed.
-
-To unregister a notification handler just close eventfd.
-
-NOTE: Support of notifications should be implemented for the control
-file. See documentation for the subsystem.
