Andrea Arcangeli 1bf4580e00 fork,memcg: alloc_thread_stack_node needs to set tsk->stack
Commit 5eed6f1dff ("fork,memcg: fix crash in free_thread_stack on
memcg charge fail") corrected two instances, but there was a third
instance of this bug.

Without setting tsk->stack, if memcg_charge_kernel_stack fails, it'll
execute free_thread_stack() on a dangling pointer.

Enterprise kernels are compiled with VMAP_STACK=y so this isn't
critical, but custom VMAP_STACK=n builds should have some performance
advantage, with the drawback of risking to fail fork because compaction
didn't succeed.  So as long as VMAP_STACK=n is a supported option it's
worth fixing it upstream.

README

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.
