Now memcg has the same life cycle with its corresponding cgroup, and
a cgroup is freed via RCU and then mem_cgroup_css_free() is called
in a work function, so we can simply call __mem_cgroup_free() in
mem_cgroup_css_free().
This actually reverts 59927fb984de1703c67bc640c3e522d8b5276c73
("memcg: free mem_cgroup by RCU to fix oops").
