 From the commit_charge's explanations and mem_cgroup_commit_charge
comments, as well as call path when lrucare is ture, The lru_lock is
just to guard the task migration(which would be lead to move_account)
So it isn't needed when !PageLRU, and better be fold into PageLRU to
reduce lock contentions.

That's wrong. Here PageLRU must be checked again under lru_lock.

Hi, Konstantin,

For logical remain, we can get the lock and then release for !PageLRU. 
but I still can figure out the problem scenario. Would like to give more hints?

Also I don't like these functions:
- called lock/unlock but actually also isolates
- used just once
- pgdat evaluated twice

That's right. I will fold these functions into commit_charge.

Thanks
Alex
