Yeah the original naming is... most unfortunate, to say the least :)

I create a new function to avoid renaming list_lru_add's usage
everywhere, but if the consensus is that everyone prefers
list_lru_add() to be the one taking memcg + nid (and the original
renamed to list_lru_add_obj()), I can go around fixing all of it :)

Seems like a separate endeavour though.
