In the near future, a folio will no longer pin its corresponding memory
cgroup.  To ensure safety, it will only be appropriate to hold the rcu
read lock or acquire a reference to the memory cgroup returned by
folio_memcg(), thereby preventing it from being released.

In the current patch, the rcu read lock is employed to safeguard against
the release of the memory cgroup in swap_writeout() and
bio_associate_blkg_from_page().

This serves as a preparatory measure for the reparenting of the LRU pages.
