Subject[PATCH] mm: memcontrol: fix data race in mem_cgroup_select_victim_node
From
Syzbot reported the following bug:

BUG: KCSAN: data-race in mem_cgroup_select_victim_node / mem_cgroup_select_victim_node

write to 0xffff88809fade9b0 of 4 bytes by task 8603 on cpu 0:

swapgs_restore_regs_and_return_to_usermode+0x0/0x40

mem_cgroup_select_victim_node() can be called concurrently which reads
and modifies memcg->last_scanned_node without any synchrnonization. So,
read and modify memcg->last_scanned_node with READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE()
to stop potential reordering.
