Can someone remind me again why all this code couldn't use
percpu-counters?

It would be better to convert `void *data' to `unsigned cpu' within the
caller of this function rather than adding the typecast to each
function which this function calls. So this becomes
static int mem_cgroup_walk_all(unsigned cpu,
int (*func)(struct mem_cgroup *memcg, unsigned cpu))

Some nice comments would be nice.
I don't immediately see anything which guarantees that preemption (and
cpu migration) are disabled here. It would be an odd thing to permit
migration within a cpu-hotplug handler, but where did we guarantee it?
Also, the code appears to assume that the current CPU is the one which
is being onlined. What guaranteed that? This is not the case for
enable_nonboot_cpus().
It's conventional to put a blank line between end-of-locals and
start-of-code. This patch ignored that convention rather a lot.
The comments in this patch Have Rather Strange Capitalisation Decisions.

More typecasts which can go away if we make the above change to
mem_cgroup_walk_all().
