[PATCH -mm] memcg: mem_cgroup_charge_statistics needs preempt_disable

From: Michal Hocko
Date: Fri Jun 20 2014 - 12:36:24 EST


preempt_disable was previously disabled by lock_page_cgroup which has
been removed by "mm: memcontrol: rewrite uncharge API".

This fixes the a flood of splats like this:

Andrew,
the changelog is quite modest but this should be folded into
mm-memcontrol-rewrite-uncharge-api.patch anyway. If you want a
regular patch, please let me know.
