[PATCH v2 2/2] mm: memcg: use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() to access stock->cached

[Roman Gushchin <roman.gushchin@xxxxxxxxx>]

A memcg pointer in the percpu stock can be accessed by drain_all_stock()
from another cpu in a lockless way.
In theory it might lead to an issue, similar to the one which has been
discovered with stock->cached_objcg, where the pointer was zeroed
between the check for being NULL and dereferencing.
In this case the issue is unlikely a real problem, but to make it
bulletproof and similar to stock->cached_objcg, let's annotate all
accesses to stock->cached with READ_ONCE()/WTRITE_ONCE().
