But move precharging does not catch this and treats this case as if no charge had happened, thus leaking a charge against root. Because of an old optimization, the root memcg's res_counter is not actually charged right now, but it's still an imbalance and subsequent patches will charge the root memcg again. Catch those bypasses to the root memcg and properly cancel them before giving up the move.
