BTW, do you have good idea to modify flag bit without affecting LOCK bit on
page_cgroup->flags ?

At least, we'll have to set ACTIVE/INACTIVE/UNEVICTABLE flags dynamically.
take lock_page_cgroup() always ?
__mem_cgroup_move_lists() will have some amount of changes. And we should
check dead lock again.

Thanks,
