Subject[patch 7/8] memcg: do not replicate get_mem_cgroup_from_mm in __mem_cgroup_try_charge
Date
From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz>

__mem_cgroup_try_charge duplicates get_mem_cgroup_from_mm for charges
which came without a memcg. The only reason seems to be a tiny
optimization when css_tryget is not called if the charge can be
consumed from the stock. Nevertheless css_tryget is very cheap since
it has been reworked to use per-cpu counting so this optimization
doesn't give us anything these days.

So let's drop the code duplication so that the code is more readable.
