page will eventually get charged for it (once it is uncharged from
the cgroup that brought it in -- this will happen on memory pressure).

Exception: If CONFIG_CGROUP_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP is not used.
When you do swapoff and make swapped-out pages of shmem(tmpfs) to
be backed into memory in force, charges for pages are accounted against the
caller of swapoff rather than the users of shmem.

- All of moving charge operations are done under cgroup_mutex. It's not good
behavior to hold the mutex too long, so we may need some trick.
