I don't think you'll need to do a major rewrite? Will you? My concern is that
this patch does too much to be a single patch. Consider someone trying to do a
git-bisect to identify a problem? It is hard to review as well and I think the
patch that just removes struct page member can go in faster.

It will be easier to test/debug as well, we'll know if the problem is because of
new page_cgroup being outside struct page rather then guessing if it was the
atomic ops that caused the problem.
