memcg: bad page if page_cgroup when free
Replace free_hot_cold_page's VM_BUG_ON(page_get_page_cgroup(page)) by a "Bad page state" and clear: most users don't have CONFIG_DEBUG_VM on, and if it were set here, it'd likely cause corruption when the page is reused. Don't use page_assign_page_cgroup to clear it: that should be private to memcontrol.c, and always called with the lock taken; and memmap_init_zone doesn't need it either - like page->mapping and other pointers throughout the kernel, Linux assumes pointers in zeroed structures are NULL pointers. Instead use page_reset_bad_cgroup, added to memcontrol.h for this only.
