So the check can be dropped. The check was introduced by commit 456f998ec817 ("memcg: add the pagefault count into memcg stats") because the originally proposed patch used current->mm for shmem but this has been changed to vma->vm_mm later on without the check being removed (thanks to Hugh for this recollection).
