Subject: [PATCH v2] memcg: charge before adding to swapcache on swapin

Currently the kernel adds the page, allocated for swapin, to the
swapcache before charging the page. This is fine but now we want a
per-memcg swapcache stat which is essential for folks who wants to
transparently migrate from cgroup v1's memsw to cgroup v2's memory and
swap counters. In addition charging a page before exposing it to other
parts of the kernel is a step in the right direction.

To correctly maintain the per-memcg swapcache stat, this patch has
adopted to charge the page before adding it to swapcache. One
challenge in this option is the failure case of add_to_swap_cache() on
which we need to undo the mem_cgroup_charge(). Specifically undoing
mem_cgroup_uncharge_swap() is not simple.

To resolve the issue, this patch introduces transaction like interface
to charge a page for swapin. The function mem_cgroup_charge_swapin_page()
initiates the charging of the page and mem_cgroup_finish_swapin_page()
completes the charging process. So, the kernel starts the charging
process of the page for swapin with mem_cgroup_charge_swapin_page(),
adds the page to the swapcache and on success completes the charging
process with mem_cgroup_finish_swapin_page().

I didn't build-test the !CONFIG_MEMCG config and missed this
semicolon. Andrew, let me know if you want me to send a new version.
