Why do you need to store the original alignment? Is the calculated
alignment not enough?

Ok this only duplicates the kmalloc arrays. Why not the others?

This implementation means that duplicate cache detection will no longer
work within a cgroup?

What happens if a cgroup was active during creation of slab xxy but
then a process running in a different cgroup uses that slab to allocate
memory? Is it charged to the first cgroup?
