When writing a page from an encrypted file that is using
filesystem-layer encryption (not inline encryption), ext4 encrypts the
pagecache page into a bounce page, then writes the bounce page.

It also passes the bounce page to wbc_account_cgroup_owner().  That's
incorrect, because the bounce page is a newly allocated temporary page
that doesn't have the memory cgroup of the original pagecache page.
This makes wbc_account_cgroup_owner() not account the I/O to the owner
of the pagecache page as it should.

Fix this by always passing the pagecache page to
wbc_account_cgroup_owner().

Fixes: 001e4a8775f6 ("ext4: implement cgroup writeback support")

This patch hasn't been applied yet.  Ted, I was hoping you would take it through
the ext4 tree.  Can you do so when you have a chance?
