==
static int mem_cgroup_move_account(struct page_cgroup *pc,
struct mem_cgroup *from, struct mem_cgroup *to,
bool uncharge, int charge_size)
{
int ret = -EINVAL;
unsigned long flags;

if ((charge_size > PAGE_SIZE) && !PageTransHuge(pc->page))
return -EBUSY;
==

This is called under compound_lock(). Then, if someone breaks THP,
-EBUSY and retry.
