memcg: avoid refill_stock for root memcg

Browse source

We never charge the page counters of root memcg, so there is no need to
put root memcg in the memcg stock.  At the moment, refill_stock() can be
called from try_charge_memcg(), obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages() and
mem_cgroup_uncharge_skmem().

The try_charge_memcg() and mem_cgroup_uncharge_skmem() are never called
with root memcg, so those are fine.  However obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages()
can potentially call refill_stock() with root memcg if the objcg object
has been reparented over to the root memcg.  Let's just avoid
refill_stock() from obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages() for root memcg.
