MEMCG_RSS extended from when the page was charged until it was
uncharged, but NR_ANON_MAPPED is only counted while the page is really
mapped into page tables. That starts shortly after we charge and ends
shortly before we uncharge, so pages could move between cgroups before
or after they are mapped, while they aren't counted in NR_ANON_MAPPED.
So to know that the page is counted, charge_statistics() only needed
to know that the page is charged and Anon; move_account() also needs
to know that the page is mapped.

Good catch, it's that dreaded circular dependency. It's fixed two
patches down when I charge anon pages earlier as well. But I'll change
the rmap<->commit order in this patch to avoid the temporary bug.
Thanks for your thorough review!
