In the near future, a folio will no longer pin its corresponding memory
cgroup. To ensure safety, it will only be appropriate to hold the rcu read
lock or acquire a reference to the memory cgroup returned by
folio_memcg(), thereby preventing it from being released.
In the current patch, the rcu read lock is employed to safeguard against
the release of the memory cgroup in folio_split_queue_lock{_irqsave}().
