PageKmemcg flag is currently defined as a page type (like buddy, offline, table and guard). Semantically it means that the page was accounted as a kernel memory by the page allocator and has to be uncharged on the release. As a side effect of defining the flag as a page type, the accounted page can't be mapped to userspace (look at page_has_type() and comments above). In particular, this blocks the accounting of vmalloc-backed memory used by some bpf maps, because these maps do map the memory to userspace. One option is to fix it by complicating the access to page->mapcount, which provides some free bits for page->page_type. But it's way better to move this flag into page->memcg_data flags. Indeed, the flag makes no sense without enabled memory cgroups and memory cgroup pointer set in particular. This commit replaces PageKmemcg() and __SetPageKmemcg() with PageMemcgKmem() and an open-coded OR operation setting the memcg pointer with the MEMCG_DATA_KMEM bit. __ClearPageKmemcg() can be simple deleted, as the whole memcg_data is zeroed at once. As a bonus, on !CONFIG_MEMCG build the PageMemcgKmem() check will be compiled out.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
