Sorry, I think I have misread it and misled you here. I mean commit
ae085d7f9365 ("mm: kfence: fix missing objcg housekeeping for SLAB")
is a bug fix, this commit does not fix any issue since __cache_free()
will be called from qlink_free() and __cache_free() will call
memcg_slab_free_hook(), so there is no issues. This commit is totally
an improvements for memcg_slab_free_hook().

When I reached here, I realized I may have misled you in the previous thread.
This commit does not fix any bugs. Sorry for the confusing.

So I think we do not need to mention it in the chagelog.

Thanks.
