The collision in memcontrol.c is a pain, but I guess as this is mainly
a loop patch, the block tree is an appropriate route.

Here's the collision between "mm: Charge active memcg when no mm is
set" and Shakeels's

Which I resolved thusly:

int mem_cgroup_charge(struct page *page, struct mm_struct *mm, gfp_t gfp_mask)
{
	struct mem_cgroup *memcg;
	int ret;

	if (mem_cgroup_disabled())
		return 0;

	if (!mm) {
		memcg = get_mem_cgroup_from_current();
		(!memcg)
			memcg = get_mem_cgroup_from_mm(current->mm);
	} else {
		memcg = get_mem_cgroup_from_mm(mm);
	}
				
	ret = __mem_cgroup_charge(page, memcg, gfp_mask);
	css_put(&memcg->css);

	return ret;
