Subject[PATCH] mm: memcontrol: fix root_mem_cgroup charging
Date
CPU0:                                   CPU1:

objcg = get_obj_cgroup_from_current();
obj_cgroup_charge(objcg);
memcg_reparent_objcgs();
xchg(&objcg->memcg, root_mem_cgroup);
// memcg == root_mem_cgroup
memcg = obj_cgroup_memcg(objcg);
__memcg_kmem_charge(memcg);
// Do not charge to the root memcg
try_charge(memcg);

If the objcg->memcg is reparented to the root_mem_cgroup,
obj_cgroup_charge() can pass root_mem_cgroup as the first
parameter to here. The root_mem_cgroup is skipped in the
try_charge(). So the page counters of it do not update.

When we uncharge this, we will decrease the page counters
(e.g. memory and memsw) of the root_mem_cgroup. This will
cause the page counters of the root_mem_cgroup to be out
of balance. Fix it by charging the page to the
root_mem_cgroup unconditional.
