This is not the place to document that a swap entry has 'type' and
'offset' fields.

I would also avoid the repetitive 'entry'. Maybe something like:
swpentry - associated swap entry, the offset indexes into the red-black tree

Again, not the place to document that objcg is an abstraction layer
above a memcg.

I would do something like:
objcg - the obj_cgroup that the compressed memory is charged to
