mm/memcg: fix refcount error while moving and swapping
commit 8d22a9351035ef2ff12ef163a1091b8b8cf1e49c upstream. It was hard to keep a test running, moving tasks between memcgs with move_charge_at_immigrate, while swapping: mem_cgroup_id_get_many()'s refcount is discovered to be 0 (supposedly impossible), so it is then forced to REFCOUNT_SATURATED, and after thousands of warnings in quick succession, the test is at last put out of misery by being OOM killed. This is because of the way moved_swap accounting was saved up until the task move gets completed in __mem_cgroup_clear_mc(), deferred from when mem_cgroup_move_swap_account() actually exchanged old and new ids. Concurrent activity can free up swap quicker than the task is scanned, bringing id refcount down 0 (which should only be possible when offlining). Just skip that optimization: do that part of the accounting immediately.
