The memcg_ptr as a collection vessel for object references makes a lot
of sense. But this code showcases that it should be a first-class
memory tracking API that the allocator interacts with, rather than
having to deal with a combination of memcg_ptr and memcg.

In the two hunks here, on one hand we charge bytes to the memcg
object, and then handle all the refcounting through a different
bucketing object. To support that in the first place, we have to
overload the memcg API all the way down to try_charge() to support
bytes and pages. This is difficult to follow throughout all layers.

What would be better is for this to be an abstraction layer for a
subpage object tracker that sits on top of the memcg page tracker -
not unlike the page allocator and the slab allocators themselves.

And then the slab allocator would only interact with the subpage
object tracker, and the object tracker would deal with the memcg page
tracker under the hood.

Something like the below, just a rough sketch to convey the idea:

On allocation, we look up an obj_cgroup from the current task, charge
it with obj_cgroup_charge() and bump its refcount by the number of
objects we allocated. obj_cgroup_charge() in turn uses the memcg layer
to charge pages, and then doles them out as bytes using
objcg->nr_stocked_bytes and the byte per-cpu stock.

On freeing, we call obj_cgroup_uncharge() and drop the references. In
turn, this first refills the byte per-cpu stock and drains the
overflow to the memcg layer (which in turn refills its own page stock
and drains to the page_counter).

On cgroup deletion, we reassign the obj_cgroup to the parent, and all
remaining live objects will free their pages to the updated parental
obj_cgroup->memcg, as per usual.
