I think the "_cleanup" suffix is unnecessary. I guess most calls made
here are cleanup calls anyway.

Do not use "get" in the name if we are not actually taking a ref here.
mem_cgroup_from_entry()?

This lock is only needed to synchronize updating pool->next_shrink,
right? Can we just use atomic operations instead? (e.g. cmpxchg()).

Can we just use RCU here as well? (same around memcg_list_lru_alloc()
call below).
