The move_lock is a per-memcg lock, but the VM accounting code that needs to acquire it comes from the page and follows page->mem_cgroup under RCU protection. That means that the page becomes unlocked not when we drop the move_lock, but when we update page->mem_cgroup. And that assignment doesn't imply any memory ordering. If that pointer write gets reordered against the reads of the page state - page_mapped, PageDirty etc. the state may change while we rely on it being stable and we can end up corrupting the counters. Place an SMP memory barrier to make sure we're done with all page state by the time the new page->mem_cgroup becomes visible. Also replace the open-coded move_lock with a lock_page_memcg() to make it more obvious what we're serializing against.
