>From the beginning, charged is set to 0 to avoid calling vm_unacct_memory twice because vm_unacct_memory will be called by above unmap_region. But since commit 4f74d2c8e827 ("vm: remove 'nr_accounted' calculations from the unmap_vmas() interfaces"), unmap_region doesn't call vm_unacct_memory anymore. So charged shouldn't be set to 0 now otherwise the calling to paired vm_unacct_memory will be missed and leads to imbalanced account.
