The collision in memcontrol.c is a pain, but I guess as this is mainly
a loop patch, the block tree is an appropriate route.

Here's the collision between "mm: Charge active memcg when no mm is
set" and Shakeels's

Which I resolved thusly:

int mem_cgroup_charge(struct page *page, struct mm_struct *mm, gfp_t gfp_mask)
{
struct mem_cgroup *memcg;
int ret;

if (mem_cgroup_disabled())
return 0;

if (!mm) {
memcg = get_mem_cgroup_from_current();
(!memcg)
memcg = get_mem_cgroup_from_mm(current->mm);
} else {
memcg = get_mem_cgroup_from_mm(mm);
}

ret = __mem_cgroup_charge(page, memcg, gfp_mask);
css_put(&memcg->css);

return ret;
}
