    memcg: fix kmemcg registration for late caches · 4ba902b5
    Glauber Costa 提交于
    The designed workflow for the caches in kmemcg is: register it with
    memcg_register_cache() if kmemcg is already available or later on when a
    new kmemcg appears at memcg_update_cache_sizes() which will handle all
    caches in the system.  The caches created at boot time will be handled
    by the later, and the memcg-caches as well as any system caches that are
    registered later on by the former.
    
    There is a bug, however, in memcg_register_cache: we correctly set up
    the array size, but do not mark the cache as a root cache.
    
    This means that allocations for any cache appearing late in the game
    will see memcg->memcg_params->is_root_cache == false, and in particular,
    trigger VM_BUG_ON(!cachep->memcg_params->is_root_cache) in
    __memcg_kmem_cache_get.
    
    The obvious fix is to include the missing assignment.
