The accounting framework works by adding a container pointer in
address_space structure. Each page in pagecache belongs to a
radix tree within the address_space structure corresponding to the inode.

In order to charge the container for pagecache usage, the corresponding
address_space is obtained from struct page which holds the container pointer.
This framework avoids any additional pointers in struct page.

additions and deletions from pagecache are hooked to charge and uncharge
the corresponding container.
