Subject: [PATCH 5/9] memcg: no refilling stock from obj_cgroup_release

obj_cgroup_release is called when all the references to the objcg have
been released i.e. no more memory objects are pointing to it. Most
probably objcg->memcg will be pointing to some ancestor memcg. In
obj_cgroup_release(), the kernel calls obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages() which
refills the local stock.

There is no need to refill the local stock with some ancestor memcg and
flush the local stock. Let's decouple obj_cgroup_release() from the
local stock by uncharging instead of refilling. One additional benefit
of this change is that it removes the requirement to only call
obj_cgroup_put() outside of local_lock.
