The patch titled
     Subject: mm: migrate: do not touch page->mem_cgroup of live pages
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-migrate-do-not-touch-page-mem_cgroup-of-live-pages.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

From: Johannes Weiner <hannes@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm: migrate: do not touch page->mem_cgroup of live pages

Changing a page's memcg association complicates dealing with the page, so
we want to limit this as much as possible.  Page migration e.g.  does not
have to do that.  Just like page cache replacement, it can forcibly charge
a replacement page, and then uncharge the old page when it gets freed. 
Temporarily overcharging the cgroup by a single page is not an issue in
practice, and charging is so cheap nowadays that this is much preferrable
to the headache of messing with live pages.

The only place that still changes the page->mem_cgroup binding of live
pages is when pages move along with a task to another cgroup.  But that
path isolates the page from the LRU, takes the page lock, and the move
lock (lock_page_memcg()).  That means page->mem_cgroup is always stable in
callers that have the page isolated from the LRU or locked.  Lighter
unlocked paths, like writeback accounting, can use lock_page_memcg().
