[PATCH] mm: initialize variable for mem_cgroup_end_page_stat

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Wed Oct 29 2014 - 21:45:16 EST


Commit "mm: memcontrol: fix missed end-writeback page accounting" has changed
the behaviour of mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat() to not always set the "locked"
parameter.

We should initialize it at the callers to prevent garbage being used in a
later call to mem_cgroup_end_page_stat().
