Historically we have a corresponding vmstat counter to each charged page.
It helps with finding accounting/stastistics issues: we can check that
memory.current ~= anon + file + sock + slab + percpu + stack.
It would be nice to preserve such ability.

Perhaps one option would be to have it count as a file page, or have a
new category.

Oh these are actually already accounted for in NR_FILE_MAPPED.

Well, it's confusing. Can't we fix this by looking at the new page memcg flag?
