I would stick with __mem_cgroup_charge here. Not that I would insist but the
folio nature is quite obvious from the parameter already.

Btw. memcg_check_events doesn't really need the page argument. A nid
should be sufficient and your earlier patch is already touching the
softlimit code so maybe it would be worth changing this page -> folio ->
page back and forth.
