No functional changes but rebased onto mmotm-2010-0603 and tested again. == From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Now, for checking a memcg is under task-account-moving, we do css_tryget() against mc.to and mc.from. But this is just complicating things. This patch makes the check easier. This patch adds a spinlock to move_charge_struct and guard modification of mc.to and mc.from. By this, we don't have to think about complicated races arount this not-critical path.
