    Subject[PATCH 14/23] slub: provide kmalloc_no_account
    Date
    Some allocations need to be accounted to the root memcg regardless
    of their context. One trivial example, is the allocations we do
    during the memcg slab cache creation themselves. Strictly speaking,
    they could go to the parent, but it is way easier to bill them to
    the root cgroup.

    Only generic kmalloc allocations are allowed to be bypassed.

    The function is not exported, because drivers code should always
    be accounted.
