Revision 6f6b8951897e487ea6f77b90ea01f70a9c363770 authored by Andrey Vagin on 28 August 2013, 23:35:20 UTC, committed by Linus Torvalds on 29 August 2013, 02:26:38 UTC
If the system had a few memory groups and all of them were destroyed,
memcg_limited_groups_array_size has non-zero value, but all new caches
are created without memcg_params, because memcg_kmem_enabled() returns
false.

We try to enumirate child caches in a few places and all of them are
potentially dangerous.

For example my kernel is compiled with CONFIG_SLAB and it crashed when I
tryed to mount a NFS share after a few experiments with kmemcg.
