memcg: remove a redundant check

Because of remove refcnt patch, it's very rare case to that
mem_cgroup_charge_common() is called against a page which is accounted.

mem_cgroup_charge_common() is called when.
 1. a page is added into file cache.
 2. an anon page is _newly_ mapped.

A racy case is that a newly-swapped-in anonymous page is referred from
prural threads in do_swap_page() at the same time.
(a page is not Locked when mem_cgroup_charge() is called from do_swap_page.)

Another case is shmem. It charges its page before calling add_to_page_cache().
Then, mem_cgroup_charge_cache() is called twice. This case is handled in
mem_cgroup_cache_charge(). But this check may be too hacky...
