memcg: add RCU locking around css_for_each_descendant_pre() in memcg_offline_kmem()
memcg_offline_kmem() may be called from memcg_free_kmem() after a css init failure. memcg_free_kmem() is a ->css_free callback which is called without cgroup_mutex and memcg_offline_kmem() ends up using css_for_each_descendant_pre() without any locking. Fix it by adding rcu read locking around it. mkdir: cannot create directory `65530': No space left on device =============================== [ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ] 4.6.0-work+ #321 Not tainted ------------------------------- kernel/cgroup.c:4008 cgroup_mutex or RCU read lock required!
