I agree with you. I've been thinking whether we can remove page cgroup lock
in update_stat as we do in lru handling codes.

IMHO, we don't need strict accounting.

I agree to this direction. One concern is we re-introduce "trylock" again..

Using !TestSetPageCgroupFileMapped(pc) or TestClearPageCgroupFileMapped(pc) is better ?

I think preemption is already disabled here too(by lock_page_cgroup()).

I welcome this fixup. IIUC, we have stat leak in current implementation.
