Right, let's see if other unexcepted things happens, and then do actions.
So it's the patch:

Subject: [PATCH] mm/memcg: warning on !memcg after readahead page charged

Since readahead page is charged on memcg too, in theory we don't have to
check this exception now. Before safely remove them all, add a warning
for the unexpected !memcg.
