yes. It's only called from
- page fault
- add_to_page_cache()
I think we'll see no stack problem. Now, memcg doesn't wakeup kswapd for
reclaiming memory, it needs direct writeback.
Of course, a memcg page fault could still be triggered
from copy_to_user or copy_from_user, with a fairly
arbitrary stack frame above...
