Ah, yeah, patch #3 arrived in isolation, so I thought it was part of
something completely different.  I definitely thought about doing it
per-inode too (and also requiring memcg to attribute pages according
to its inode rather than individual pages).  I'll look into the
patchset and try to identify the pros and cons of our approaches.

Thanks.
