pc is of type page_cgroup and we use list_for_each_entry_safe_reverse. Not sure
why we can't bug on pc.

pc is dereferenced before this VM_BUG_ON.

OK, so the VM_BUG_ON needs to move to an earlier location. Agreed.

can't page be NULL here if mem_cgroup_uncharge clears pc->page behind us?
ie. bug.

No, 'pc' has been dereferenced in list_for_each_entry_safe_reverse().
#define list_for_each_entry_safe_reverse(pos, n, head, member) \
for (pos = list_entry((head)->prev, typeof(*pos), member), \
n = list_entry(pos->member.prev, typeof(*pos), member); \
^^^^^^^^^^^
&pos->member != (head); \
^^^^^^^^^^^
pos = n, n = list_entry(n->member.prev, typeof(*n), member))

Hmm.. We used to have a for loop with !list_empty() as a termination condition
and VM_BUG_ON(!pc) is a spill over. With the new loop, VM_BUG_ON(!pc) does not
make sense.

I see, and I'll post a new patch to just remove it.
Remove this VM_BUG_ON(), as Balbir stated:
We used to have a for loop with !list_empty() as a termination condition
and VM_BUG_ON(!pc) is a spill over. With the new loop, VM_BUG_ON(!pc) does not
make sense.
