I would slightly prefer naming the bit with a define, and open-coding
the bitops in the current callsites. This makes it clearer that the
actual pointer bits are overloaded in the places where the pointer is
accessed.

As per the other thread, it would be great to have a comment here
explaining the scenario(s) when the tryget could fail and we'd have to
defer to an ancestor.

Overall this looks great to me.

AFAICS the rcu_read_lock() is needed for the mem_cgroup_from_task()
and tryget(). Is it possible to localize it around these operations?
Or am I missing some other effect it has?

I like this open-coding!

Should this mention why it doesn't need to be atomic? Task is in
fork(), no concurrent modifications from allocations or migrations
possible...

None of the feedback is a blocker, though.
