How about this ? worth to be tested, I think.

Before synchronized-LRU patch, mem cgroup had its own LRU lock.
And there was a code which does
# assume mz as per zone struct of memcg. 

   spin_lock mz->lru_lock
	lock_page_cgroup(pc).
   and
   lock_page_cgroup(pc)
	spin_lock mz->lru_lock

because we cannot locate "mz" until we see pc->page_cgroup, we used
trylock(). But now, we don't have mz->lru_lock. All cgroup
uses zone->lru_lock for handling list. Moreover, manipulation of
LRU depends on global LRU now and we can isolate page from LRU by
very generic way.(isolate_lru_page()).
So, this kind of trylock is not necessary now.

I thought I removed all trylock in synchronized-LRU patch but there
is still one. This patch removes trylock used in memcontrol.c and
its definition. If someone needs, he should add this again with enough
reason.
