Subject: [PATCH tip/core/urgent 08/10] memcg: css_id() must be called under rcu_read_lock()

This patch fixes task_in_mem_cgroup(), mem_cgroup_uncharge_swapcache(),
mem_cgroup_move_swap_account(), and is_target_pte_for_mc() to protect
calls to css_id().  An additional RCU lockdep splat was reported for
memcg_oom_wake_function(), however, this function is not yet in
mainline as of 2.6.34-rc5.
