Right. __mem_cgroup_get_kmem_cache() fetches the memcg of the owner and calls memcg_create_cache_enqueue() which does css_tryget(&memcg->css). After this tryget I think you're fine. And in-between you're safe against css_set removal due to rcu_read_lock(). I'm less clear with __mem_cgroup_new_kmem_page() though...
That one does not get memcg->css but it does call mem_cgroup_get(), that does prevent against the memcg structure being freed, which I believe to be good enough.
