Hi Michal, thanks for doing this. There is only one issue I can see:

This publishes the memcg object too early. Before 4.5, the memcg is
not fully initialized in mem_cgroup_alloc(). You have to move the
idr_replace() down to that function (and idr_remove() on free_out).

The > 0 check seems unnecessary, no?
