mm: migrate: do not touch page->mem_cgroup of live pages
Changing a page's memcg association complicates dealing with the page, so we want to limit this as much as possible. Page migration e.g. does not have to do that. Just like page cache replacement, it can forcibly charge a replacement page, and then uncharge the old page when it gets freed. Temporarily overcharging the cgroup by a single page is not an issue in practice, and charging is so cheap nowadays that this is much preferrable to the headache of messing with live pages. The only place that still changes the page->mem_cgroup binding of live pages is when pages move along with a task to another cgroup. But that path isolates the page from the LRU, takes the page lock, and the move lock (lock_page_memcg()). That means page->mem_cgroup is always stable in callers that have the page isolated from the LRU or locked. Lighter unlocked paths, like writeback accounting, can use lock_page_memcg().
