Now, at LRU handling, memory cgroup needs to do complicated works to see
valid pc->mem_cgroup, which may be overwritten.
This patch is for relaxing the protocol. This patch guarantees
- when pc->mem_cgroup is overwritten, page must not be on LRU.
By this, LRU routine can believe pc->mem_cgroup and don't need to check
bits on pc->flags. This new rule may adds small overheads to swapin. But
in most case, lru handling gets faster.
After this patch, PCG_ACCT_LRU bit is obsolete and removed.
