I know that names are alway tricky but what about mem_cgroup_acct_lru_add?
Analogously for mem_cgroup_lru_del_list, mem_cgroup_lru_del and
mem_cgroup_lru_move_lists.

Any specific reason to move zone declaration down here? Not that it
matters much. Just curious.

lookup_page_cgroup might return NULL so we probably want BUG_ON(!pc)
here. We are not very consistent about checking the return value,
though.
