[PATCH -next] mm/memcg: fix a -Wparentheses compilation warning

[Qian Cai]

The linux-next commit ("mm/memcontrol.c: fix use after free in
mem_cgroup_iter()") [1] introduced a compilation warning,

mm/memcontrol.c:1160:17: warning: using the result of an assignment as a
condition without parentheses [-Wparentheses]
        } while (memcg = parent_mem_cgroup(memcg));
                 ~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
mm/memcontrol.c:1160:17: note: place parentheses around the assignment
to silence this warning
        } while (memcg = parent_mem_cgroup(memcg));
                       ^
                 (                               )
mm/memcontrol.c:1160:17: note: use '==' to turn this assignment into an
equality comparison
        } while (memcg = parent_mem_cgroup(memcg));
                       ^
                       ==

Fix it by adding a pair of parentheses.

Thanks for the fix. I assume Andrew is going to squash it into the
original patch.
