Why we need two namesakes for this list entry?

For me it looks redundantly: it does not give additional information,
but it leads to duplication (and we have two helpers page_deferred_list()
and page_memcg_deferred_list() instead of one).

Such the patterns look like a duplication of functionality, we already have
in list_lru: it handles both root_mem_cgroup and all children memcg.

Should we try to reuse that code, and to switch huge pages shrinker
into generic code?

(Yeah, currently we allocate memcg_cache_ida IDS only for kmem, but we may
 consider to allocate them for any cases, since now we have new memcg shrinkers
 like you introduce).
