Subject[patch 4/8] mm: memcg: lookup_page_cgroup (almost) never returns NULL
Date
From: Johannes Weiner <jweiner@redhat.com>

Pages have their corresponding page_cgroup descriptors set up before
they are used in userspace, and thus managed by a memory cgroup.

The only time where lookup_page_cgroup() can return NULL is in the
page sanity checking code that executes while feeding pages into the
page allocator for the first time.

Remove the NULL checks against lookup_page_cgroup() results from all
callsites where we know that corresponding page_cgroup descriptors
must be allocated.
