From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxx>
Subject: memcg: do not check for mm in mem_cgroup_count_vm_event

mm given to mem_cgroup_count_vm_event() cannot be NULL because the
function is either called from the page fault path or vma->vm_mm is used. 
So the check can be dropped.

The check was introduced by 456f998e (memcg: add the pagefault count into
memcg stats) because the originally proposed patch used current->mm for
shmem but this has been changed to vma->vm_mm later on without the check
being removed (thanks to Hugh for this recollection).
