commit d38a2b7a9c939e6d7329ab92b96559ccebf7b135 upstream.
If the kmem_cache refcount is greater than one, we should not mark the
root kmem_cache as dying. If we mark the root kmem_cache dying
incorrectly, the non-root kmem_cache can never be destroyed. It
resulted in memory leak when memcg was destroyed. We can use the
following steps to reproduce.
1) Use kmem_cache_create() to create a new kmem_cache named A.
2) Coincidentally, the kmem_cache A is an alias for kmem_cache B,
so the refcount of B is just increased.
3) Use kmem_cache_destroy() to destroy the kmem_cache A, just
decrease the B's refcount but mark the B as dying.
4) Create a new memory cgroup and alloc memory from the kmem_cache
B. It leads to create a non-root kmem_cache for allocating memory.
5) When destroy the memory cgroup created in the step 4), the
non-root kmem_cache can never be destroyed.
If we repeat steps 4) and 5), this will cause a lot of memory leak. So
only when refcount reach zero, we mark the root kmem_cache as dying.

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.
