It goes back to commit 55779ec759ccc3c12b917b3712a7716e1140c652.

The activation code is the only path where page migration is not
excluded. Because unlike with page state statistics, we don't really
mind a race when counting an activation event.

I do think there is a bug, though: mem_cgroup_move_account() should
use WRITE_ONCE() on page->mem_cgroup.
