Right. I am not implying that the check should be removed, or that
this is something this patch should address for that matter.
I just realized while looking at this patch that because we are using
objcg in zswap charging, it is dependent on memcg kmem charging. I am
not sure I understand if such dependency is needed? IIUC swapped out
pages hold references to the memcg they are charged to anyway, so why
do we need to use objcgs in charging zswap? I feel like I am missing
something.
