Subject: memcg: fix deadlock between lock_page_cgroup and mapping tree_lock

mapping->tree_lock can be acquired from interrupt context.  Then,
following dead lock can occur.

Assume "A" as a page.

 CPU0:
       lock_page_cgroup(A)
		interrupted
			-> take mapping->tree_lock.
 CPU1:
       take mapping->tree_lock
		-> lock_page_cgroup(A)

This patch tries to fix above deadlock by moving memcg's hook to out of
mapping->tree_lock.  charge/uncharge of pagecache/swapcache is protected
by page lock, not tree_lock.

After this patch, lock_page_cgroup() is not called under mapping->tree_lock.
