Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/8] memcg: refactor updating memcg->moving_account

memcg->moving_account is used to signal that a memcg move is taking
place, so that folio_memcg_lock() would start acquiring the per-memcg
move lock instead of just initiating an rcu read section.

Refactor incrementing and decrementing memcg->moving_account, together
with rcu synchornization and the elaborate comment into helpers, to
allow for reuse by incoming patches.
