So, we still charge the mem page counter in pages but keep the
remaining sub-page slack charge in nr_charge_bytes, right?

So, memcg->objcs_list will always only contain the offlined
descendants objcgs. I would recommend to rename objcg_list to clearly
show that. Maybe offlined_objcg_list or descendants_objcg_list or
something else.

I have not seen the users of this function yet but shouldn't the above
check be (!current->mm && !current->active_memcg)?
Do we need a mem_cgroup_disabled() check as well?

The normal stock can go to 32*nr_cpus*PAGE_SIZE. I am wondering if
just PAGE_SIZE is too less for obj stock.
