This particular part will not break removal because
hugetlb_cgroup_css_offline loops until hugetlb_cgroup_have_usage is 0.

Little bit offtopic:
Btw. hugetlb migration breaks to charging even before this patchset
AFAICS. The above put_page should remove the last reference and then it
will uncharge it but I do not see anything that would charge a new page.
This is all because regula LRU pages are uncharged when they are
unmapped. But this a different story not related to this series.
