[patch 10/10] mm: memcg: only check anon swapin page charges for swap cache

[Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org>]

shmem knows for sure that the page is in swap cache when attempting to
charge a page, because the cache charge entry function has a check for
it.  Only anon pages may be removed from swap cache already when
trying to charge their swapin.

Adjust the comment, though: '4969c11 mm: fix swapin race condition'
added a stable PageSwapCache check under the page lock in the
do_swap_page() before calling the memory controller, so it's
unuse_pte()'s pte_same() that may fail.
