mm: memcg: switch to css_tryget() in get_mem_cgroup_from_mm()
We've encountered a rcu stall in get_mem_cgroup_from_mm():
rcu: INFO: rcu_sched self-detected stall on CPU

The problem is caused by an exiting task which is associated with an
offline memcg. We're iterating over and over in the do {} while
(!css_tryget_online()) loop, but obviously the memcg won't become online
and the exiting task won't be migrated to a live memcg.
Let's fix it by switching from css_tryget_online() to css_tryget().
As css_tryget_online() cannot guarantee that the memcg won't go offline,
the check is usually useless, except some rare cases when for example it
determines if something should be presented to a user.
A similar problem is described by commit 18fa84a2db
("cgroup: Use
css_tryget() instead of css_tryget_online() in task_get_css()").
Johannes:
: The bug aside, it doesn't matter whether the cgroup is online for the
: callers. It used to matter when offlining needed to evacuate all charges
: from the memcg, and so needed to prevent new ones from showing up, but we
: don't care now.
