It's simpler and less time consuming to fix it just once than over and over again. Likely memcg in this release isn't too stable with THP on (it'll definitely work fine if you disable THP at compile time or at boot time with the kernel parameter). Especially all get_css/put_css will have to be re-audited after these new changes. For now it builds just fine and the basics to support THP and to show the direction are in. Nevertheless I welcome patches to fix this up. btw, memcg developers could already support THP inside memcg even if THP is not included yet without any sort of problem, so it's also partly up to them to want to support THP in memcg, but it's also perfectly ok to catch up with memcg externally, but it'd be also nice to know when memcg reaches a milestone and so when it's time to re-audit it all for THP.
