Subject: [PATCH] memcg: workingset: remove folio_memcg_rcu usage

The function workingset_activation() is called from
folio_mark_accessed() with the guarantee that the given folio can not be
freed under us in workingset_activation(). In addition, the association
of the folio and its memcg can not be broken here because charge
migration is no more. There is no need to use folio_memcg_rcu. Simply
use folio_memcg_charged() because that is what this function cares
about.

Andrew, please put this patch after the charge migration deprecation
series.
