mm: increment gen # before restarting traversal

Browse Source 
The generation number in struct mem_cgroup_reclaim_iter should be
incremented on every round-trip.  Currently, it is possible for a
concurrent reclaimer to jump in at the end of the hierarchy, causing a
traversal restart (resetting the iteration position) without incrementing
the generation number.

By resetting the position without incrementing the generation, it's
possible for another ongoing mem_cgroup_iter() thread to walk the tree
twice.

Move the traversal restart such that the generation number is
incremented before the restart.
