Agreed. If we move the check into memcg_kmem_uncharge_page(), perhaps
we should call it directly here instead of doing the checks, since
there won't be an extra function call as it is inline, right? We can
also make __memcg_kmem_uncharge_page static to mm/memcontrol.c

I suspect the same can be done for __memcg_kmem_charge_page() as well.
