Subject: [PATCH] mm: memcontrol: convert page cache to a new
 mem_cgroup_charge() API

The try/commit/cancel protocol that memcg uses dates back to when
pages used to be uncharged upon removal from the page cache, and thus
couldn't be committed before the insertion had succeeded. Nowadays,
pages are uncharged when they are physically freed; it doesn't matter
whether the insertion was successful or not. For the page cache, the
transaction dance has become unnecessary.

Introduce a mem_cgroup_charge() function that simply charges a newly
allocated page to a cgroup and sets up page->mem_cgroup in one single
step. If the insertion fails, the caller doesn't have to do anything
but free/put the page.

Then switch the page cache over to this new API.

Subsequent patches will also convert anon pages, but it needs a bit
more prep work. Right now, memcg depends on page->mapping being
already set up at the time of charging, so that it can maintain its
own MEMCG_CACHE and MEMCG_RSS counters. For anon, page->mapping is set
under the same pte lock under which the page is publishd, so a single
charge point that can block doesn't work there just yet.

The following prep patches will replace the private memcg counters
with the generic vmstat counters, thus removing the page->mapping
dependency, then complete the transition to the new single-point
charge API and delete the old transactional scheme.

v2: leave shmem swapcache when charging fails to avoid double IO (Joonsoo)
v3: rebase on preceeding shmem simplification patch
