memcg: initialize kmem-cache destroying work earlier
 
Fix a warning from lockdep caused by calling cancel_work_sync() for
uninitialized struct work.  This path has been triggered by destructon
kmem-cache hierarchy via destroying its root kmem-cache.

  cache ffff88003c072d80
  obj ffff88003b410000 cache ffff88003c072d80
  obj ffff88003b924000 cache ffff88003c20bd40
  INFO: trying to register non-static key.
  the code is fine but needs lockdep annotation.
  turning off the locking correctness validator.
