The wording suggests that _any_ memcg charge might be skipped by this flag
but only kmem part is handled.

So either handle the flag in try_charge or, IMO preferably, update the
comment here and add WARN_ON{_ONCE}(gfp & __GFP_NOACCOUNT). I do not
think we should allow to skip the charge for user pages ATM and warning
could tell us about the abuse of the flag.
