Currently the kernel adds the page, allocated for swapin, to the
swapcache before charging the page. This is fine but now we want a
per-memcg swapcache stat which is essential for folks who wants to
transparently migrate from cgroup v1's memsw to cgroup v2's memory and
swap counters. In addition charging a page before exposing it to other
parts of the kernel is a step in the right direction.
To correctly maintain the per-memcg swapcache stat, this patch has
adopted to charge the page before adding it to swapcache. One
challenge in this option is the failure case of add_to_swap_cache() on
which we need to undo the mem_cgroup_charge(). Specifically undoing
mem_cgroup_uncharge_swap() is not simple.
To resolve the issue, this patch introduces transaction like interface
to charge a page for swapin. The function mem_cgroup_charge_swapin_page()
initiates the charging of the page and mem_cgroup_finish_swapin_page()
completes the charging process. So, the kernel starts the charging
process of the page for swapin with mem_cgroup_charge_swapin_page(),
adds the page to the swapcache and on success completes the charging
process with mem_cgroup_finish_swapin_page().

Changes since v3:
- Updated the comments on introduced functions (Johannes)
- Rename the funcations to be more clear (Hugh & Johannes)
Changes since v2:
- fixed build for !CONFIG_MEMCG
- simplified failure path from add_to_swap_cache()
Changes since v1:
- Removes __GFP_NOFAIL and introduced transaction interface for charging
(suggested by Johannes)
- Updated the commit message
