Alex Shi f9b1038ebc mm/memcg: remove rcu locking for lock_page_lruvec function series
lock_page_lruvec() and its variants used rcu_read_lock() with the
intention of safeguarding against the mem_cgroup being destroyed
concurrently; but so long as they are called under the specified
conditions (as they are), there is no way for the page's mem_cgroup to be
destroyed.  Delete the unnecessary rcu_read_lock() and _unlock().

Hugh Dickins polished the commit log.  Thanks a lot!

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
