memcg: implement mem_cgroup_css_from_page()
Implement mem_cgroup_css_from_page() which returns the
cgroup_subsys_state of the memcg associated with a given page on the
default hierarchy. This will be used by cgroup writeback support.
This function assumes that page->mem_cgroup association doesn't change
until the page is released, which is true on the default hierarchy as
long as replace_page_cache_page() is not used. As the only user of
replace_page_cache_page() is FUSE which won't support cgroup writeback
for the time being, this works for now, and replace_page_cache_page()
will soon be updated so that the invariant actually holds.
Note that the RCU protected page->mem_cgroup access is consistent with
other usages across memcg but ultimately incorrect. These unlocked
accesses are missing required barriers. page->mem_cgroup should be
made an RCU pointer and updated and accessed using RCU operations.
v4: Instead of triggering WARN, return the root css on the traditional
hierarchies. This makes the function a lot easier to deal with
especially as there's no light way to synchronize against
hierarchy rebinding.
v3: s/mem_cgroup_migrate()/mem_cgroup_css_from_page()/
v2: Trigger WARN if the function is used on the traditional
hierarchies and add comment about the assumed invariant.
