Right.

I don't think it is an issue since memcg_slab_free_hook()
mainly does memory accounting housekeeping.  Doing it in
advance is not an issue.  Actually, we already have done
this since

  commit d1b2cf6cb84a ("mm: memcg/slab: uncharge during kmem_cache_free_bulk()")

>From this commit, the object freed via kmem_cache_free_bulk()
in mm/slub.c have called memcg_slab_free_hook() even if
kasan_slab_free() retuns true.  Right?
