memcg-v1: no need for memcg locking for writeback tracking

Browse Source 
During the era of memcg charge migration, the kernel has to be make
sure that the writeback stat updates do not race with the charge
migration.  Otherwise it might update the writeback stats of the wrong
memcg.  Now with the memcg charge migration gone, there is no more race
for writeback stat updates and the previous locking can be removed.
