Jia,

Once again: please add a cover letter when you have a patch
series. It isn't rocket science, and Git will do it for you.

Inspired by commit 254272ce6505 ("kvm: x86: Add memcg accounting to KVM
allocations"), it would be better to make arm64 vgic consistent with
common kvm codes.

The memory allocations of VM scope should be charged into VM process
cgroup, hence change GFP_KERNEL to GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT.

There remained a case in vgic_set_kvm_info() since this allocation is
global, not in VM scope.

This really isn't an allocation made in the context of a VM. I don't
think this hunk belongs here.

Thanks,
