[RFC][PATCH 5/4] memcg: don't call res_counter_uncharge when obsolete

[Daisuke Nishimura <nishimura@mxp.nes.nec.co.jp>]

This is a new one. Please review.

===
From: Daisuke Nishimura <nishimura@mxp.nes.nec.co.jp>

mem_cgroup_get ensures that the memcg that has been got can be accessed
even after the directory has been removed, but it doesn't ensure that parents
of it can be accessed: parents might have been freed already by rmdir.

This causes a bug in case of use_hierarchy==1, because res_counter_uncharge
climb up the tree.

Check if the memcg is obsolete, and don't call res_counter_uncharge when obsole.
