Doesn't this 2 functions has no short-cuts ?

if (memcg_kmem_on && handle) ?

Maybe free() needs to access page_cgroup...

This mem_cgroup_get() will be a potentioal performance problem.
Don't you have good idea to avoid accessing atomic counter here ?
I think some kind of percpu counter or a feature to disable "move task"
will be a help.

shouldn't this happen after checking "Used" bit ?
Ah, BTW, why do you need to clear pc->memcg ?

Why do we need ref-counting here ? kmem res_counter cannot work as
reference ?

What does 'delta' means ?

Hm, you returns 0 and this charge may never be uncharged....right ?
