memcg: simplify corner case handling of LRU.
This patch simplifies LRU handling of racy case (memcg+SwapCache). At
charging, SwapCache tend to be on LRU already. So, before overwriting
pc->mem_cgroup, the page must be removed from LRU and added to LRU
later.
This patch does
spin_lock(zone->lru_lock);
if (PageLRU(page))
remove from LRU
overwrite pc->mem_cgroup
if (PageLRU(page))
add to new LRU.
spin_unlock(zone->lru_lock);
And guarantee all pages are not on LRU at modifying pc->mem_cgroup.
This patch also unfies lru handling of replace_page_cache() and
swapin.
