Please argue this *after* the commit has been reverted. You guys can
try to make the memcontrol batching actually work and scale later.
It's not appropriate to argue against major regressions when reported
and bisected by users.

Showing the spinlock at the top of the profile is very much crazy
(apparently taking 68% of all cpu time), when it's all useless
make-believe work. I don't understand why you wouldn't call that
crazy.
