[RFC 2/3] memcg: Use mc.moving_task as the indication for charge moving

[Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz>]

move_charge_struct::to not being NULL has been used to indicate whether
the currently ongoing move operation should migrate the charges. The follow up
patch will require mc.to being initialized even when we do not migrate
charges so replace the check by checking mc.moving_task which is set
only when the migration is requested. Also replace the open coded check
by a helper function (mc_move_charge).

mem_cgroup_clear_mc has to be called unconditionally now because it
has to clean up from and to pointers. __mem_cgroup_clear_mc does the
migration specific cleanup so it still checks for mc_move_charge.
