mm/vmscan.c: In function 'zone_nr_lru_pages':
mm/vmscan.c:175: warning: passing argument 2 of 'mem_cgroup_zone_nr_lru_pages' makes pointer from integer without a cast
include/linux/memcontrol.h:307: note: expected 'struct zone *' but argument is of type 'int'

The memcg code sometimes uses "struct mem_cgroup *mem" and sometimes
uses "struct mem_cgroup *memcg".  That's irritating.  I think "memcg"
is better.
