mm: memcg/slab: fix root memcg vmstats
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
commit 8faeb1f upstream.

If we reparent the slab objects to the root memcg, when we free the slab
object, we need to update the per-memcg vmstats to keep it correct for
the root memcg.  Now this at least affects the vmstat of
NR_KERNEL_STACK_KB for !CONFIG_VMAP_STACK when the thread stack size is
smaller than the PAGE_SIZE.

David said:
 "I assume that without this fix that the root memcg's vmstat would
  always be inflated if we reparented"
