memcg: fix race at move_parent around compound_order()
A fix up mem_cgroup_move_parent() which use compound_order() in asynchronous manner. This compound_order() may return unknown value because we don't take lock. Use PageTransHuge() and HPAGE_SIZE instead of it. Also clean up for mem_cgroup_move_parent(). - remove unnecessary initialization of local variable. - rename charge_size -> page_size - remove unnecessary (wrong) comment. - added a comment about THP. Note: Current design take compound_page_lock() in caller of move_account(). This should be revisited when we implement direct move_task of hugepage without splitting.
