Very good! I've just tested the bio_cgroup_id inclusion in
page_cgroup->flags. I'm posting the patch on-top-of my patchset.

If you're interested, it should apply cleanly to the original
bio-cgroup, except for the get/put_cgroup_from_page() part.

Thanks,

bio-cgroup: encode bio_cgroup_id in page_cgroup->flags

Encode the bio_cgroup_id into the flags argument of page_cgroup as
suggested by Kamezawa.

Lower 16-bits of the flags attribute are used for the actual page_cgroup
flags. The rest is reserved to store the bio-cgroup id.

This allows to save 4 bytes (in 32-bit architectures) or 8 bytes (in
64-bit) for each page_cgroup element.
