------------------------------------------------------
Subject: memcg: fix LRU accounting for SwapCache
From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Now, a page can be deleted from SwapCache while do_swap_page(). 
memcg-fix-swap-accounting-leak-v3.patch handles that, but, LRU handling is
still broken.  (above behavior broke assumption of memcg-synchronized-lru
patch.)

This patch is a fix for LRU handling (especially for per-zone counters).
At charging SwapCache,
 - Remove page_cgroup from LRU if it's not used.
 - Add page cgroup to LRU if it's not linked to.
