Muchun Song eefbfa7fd6 mm: memcg/slab: fix use after free in obj_cgroup_charge
The rcu_read_lock/unlock only can guarantee that the memcg will not be
freed, but it cannot guarantee the success of css_get to memcg.

If the whole process of a cgroup offlining is completed between reading a
objcg->memcg pointer and bumping the css reference on another CPU, and
there are exactly 0 external references to this memory cgroup (how we get
to the obj_cgroup_charge() then?), css_get() can change the ref counter
from 0 back to 1.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
