KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki dc19f9db38 memcg: memory hotplug fix for notifier callback
Fixes for memcg/memory hotplug.

While memory hotplug allocate/free memmap, page_cgroup doesn't free
page_cgroup at OFFLINE when page_cgroup is allocated via bootomem.
(Because freeing bootmem requires special care.)

Then, if page_cgroup is allocated by bootmem and memmap is freed/allocated
by memory hotplug, page_cgroup->page == page is no longer true.

But current MEM_ONLINE handler doesn't check it and update
page_cgroup->page if it's not necessary to allocate page_cgroup.  (This
was not found because memmap is not freed if SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is y.)

And I noticed that MEM_ONLINE can be called against "part of section".
So, freeing page_cgroup at CANCEL_ONLINE will cause trouble.  (freeing
used page_cgroup) Don't rollback at CANCEL.

One more, current memory hotplug notifier is stopped by slub because it
sets NOTIFY_STOP_MASK to return vaule.  So, page_cgroup's callback never
be called.  (low priority than slub now.)

I think this slub's behavior is not intentional(BUG). and fixes it.

Another way to be considered about page_cgroup allocation:
  - free page_cgroup at OFFLINE even if it's from bootmem
    and remove specieal handler. But it requires more changes.
