mem_cgroup_update_file_mapped() was renamed to
mem_cgroup_update_file_stat() in
http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/memcg-generic-filestat-update-interface.patch

I also do not see this in the mmotm git repo.  However, if I manually
apply the mmotm patches to v2.6.36 using quilt then I see the expected
patched memcontrol.c.  I am not sure why the zen-kernel.org git mmotm
repo differs from a mmotm patched mainline 2.6.36.

Here is my procedure using quilt to patch mainline:

# Checkout 2.6.36 mainline
$ git checkout v2.6.36

# Confirm mainline 2.6.36 does not have mem_cgroup_update_file_stat()
$ grep mem_cgroup_update_file_stat -r mm

# Apply patches
$ curl http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out.tar.gz | tar -xzf -
$ export QUILT_PATCHES=broken-out
$ quilt push -aq
...
Now at patch memblock-add-input-size-checking-to-memblock_find_region-fix.patch

# Now the memcontrol contains mem_cgroup_update_file_stat()
$ grep mem_cgroup_update_file_stat -r mm
mm/memcontrol.c:static void mem_cgroup_update_file_stat(struct page *page, int idx, int val)
mm/memcontrol.c:        mem_cgroup_update_file_stat(page, MEM_CGROUP_STAT_FILE_MAPPED, val);
