Subject: mm: memcontrol: fix swap counter leak on swapout from offline cgroup
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.
