But in recent discussion, it's NACKed because it sounds ugly. This patch is for reverting it and add some clean up to gfp_mask of callers of charge. No behavior change but need review before generating HUNK in deep queue. This patch also adds explanation to meaning of gfp_mask passed to charge functions in memcontrol.h.
