We know that the unit of slab object charging is bytes, the unit of kmem page charging is PAGE_SIZE. If we want to reuse obj_cgroup APIs to charge the kmem pages, we should pass PAGE_SIZE (as third parameter) to obj_cgroup_charge(). Because the size is already PAGE_SIZE, we can skip touch the objcg stock. And obj_cgroup_{un}charge_pages() are introduced to charge in units of page level. In the latter patch, we also can reuse those two helpers to charge or uncharge a number of kernel pages to a object cgroup. This is just a code movement without any functional changes.

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.
