Since commit 2788cf0c401c ("memcg: reparent list_lrus and free kmemcg_id
on css offline"), ->nr_items can be negative during memory cgroup
reparenting.  In this case, list_lru_count_one() will return an unusual
and huge value, which can surprise users.  At least for now it hasn't
affected any users.  But it is better to let list_lru_count_ont()
returns zero when ->nr_items is negative.
