memcg: fix race at move_parent around compound_order()

A fix up mem_cgroup_move_parent() which use compound_order() in
asynchronous manner.  This compound_order() may return unknown value
because we don't take lock.  Use PageTransHuge() and HPAGE_SIZE instead
of it.

Also clean up for mem_cgroup_move_parent().
 - remove unnecessary initialization of local variable.
 - rename charge_size -> page_size
 - remove unnecessary (wrong) comment.
 - added a comment about THP.

Note:
 Current design take compound_page_lock() in caller of move_account().
 This should be revisited when we implement direct move_task of hugepage
 without splitting.
