Commit 1a3e1f4 ("mm: memcontrol: decouple reference counting from
page accounting") reworked the memcg lifetime to be bound the the struct
page rather than charges.  It also removed the css_put_many from
uncharge_batch and that is causing the above splat.

uncharge_batch() is supposed to uncharge accumulated charges for all
pages freed from the same memcg.  The queuing is done by uncharge_page
which however drops the memcg reference after it adds charges to the
batch.  If the current page happens to be the last one holding the
reference for its memcg then the memcg is OK to go and the next page to
be freed will trigger batched uncharge which needs to access the memcg
which is gone already.

Fix the issue by taking a reference for the memcg in the current batch.
