An offline memory cgroup might have anonymous memory or shmem left
charged to it and no swap. Since only swap entries pin the id of an
offline cgroup, such a cgroup will have no id and so an attempt to
swapout its anon/shmem will not store memory cgroup info in the swap
cgroup map. As a result, memcg->swap or memcg->memsw will never get
uncharged from it and any of its ascendants.
Fix this by always charging swapout to the first ancestor cgroup that
hasn't released its id yet.
