page_cgroup_*_onwer are defined in mm/page_cgroup.c, that is built if
CONFIG_PAGE_TRACKING=y. But from init/Kconfig:

  config CGROUP_IO_THROTTLE
  	bool "Enable cgroup I/O throttling"
  	depends on CGROUPS && RESOURCE_COUNTERS && EXPERIMENTAL
  	select MM_OWNER
  	select PAGE_TRACKING
	       ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
mmmh??? it should be correct.

And I don't understand how the following patch can fix this problem...

Could you post your .config?

Thanks,
-Andrea
