Could you check if the patch below fixes the issue?

Subject: [PATCH] slub: fix per memcg cache leak on css offline

To avoid a possible deadlock, sysfs_slab_remove() schedules an
asynchronous work to delete sysfs entries corresponding to the kmem
cache. To ensure the cache isn't freed before the work function is
called, it takes a reference to the cache kobject. The reference is
supposed to be released by the work function. However, the work function
(sysfs_slab_remove_workfn()) does nothing in case the cache sysfs entry
has already been deleted, leaking the kobject and the corresponding
cache. This may happen on a per memcg cache destruction, because sysfs
entries of a per memcg cache are deleted on memcg offline if the cache
is empty (see __kmemcg_cache_deactivate()).

The kmemleak report looks like this:

  unreferenced object 0xffff9f798a79f540 (size 32):

Fix the leak by adding the missing call to kobject_put() to
sysfs_slab_remove_workfn().
