Subject[PATCH] Mark res_counter_charge(_locked) with __must_check
Ignoring theirs return value may result in counter underflow
in the future - when the value charged will be uncharged (or in
"leaks" - when the value is not uncharged).

This also prevents from using charging routines to decrement the
counter value (i.e. uncharge it) ;)

(Current code works OK with res_counter, however :) )
