mm: memcg: remove optimization of keeping the root_mem_cgroup LRU lists empty
root_mem_cgroup, lacking a configurable limit, was never subject to limit reclaim, so the pages charged to it could be kept off its LRU lists. They would be found on the global per-zone LRU lists upon physical memory pressure and it made sense to avoid uselessly linking them to both lists. The global per-zone LRU lists are about to go away on memcg-enabled kernels, with all pages being exclusively linked to their respective per-memcg LRU lists. As a result, pages of the root_mem_cgroup must also be linked to its LRU lists again. This is purely about the LRU list, root_mem_cgroup is still not charged. The overhead is temporary until the double-LRU scheme is going away completely.
