mm, memcg: fix potential undefined behaviour in page stat accounting
Since commit d7365e783e
("mm: memcontrol: fix missed end-writeback
page accounting") mem_cgroup_end_page_stat consumes locked and flags
variables directly rather than via pointers which might trigger C
undefined behavior as those variables are initialized only in the slow
path of mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat.
Although mem_cgroup_end_page_stat handles parameters correctly and
touches them only when they hold a sensible value it is caller which
loads a potentially uninitialized value which then might allow compiler
to do crazy things.
I haven't seen any warning from gcc and it seems that the current
version (4.9) doesn't exploit this type undefined behavior but Sasha has
reported the following:
UBSan: Undefined behaviour in mm/rmap.c:1084:2
load of value 255 is not a valid value for type '_Bool'

Fix this by using pointer parameters for both locked and flags and be
more robust for future compiler changes even though the current code is
implemented correctly.
