Do you think it's possible that this memcg can be destroyed (like ss->destroy())
concurrently?

Probably not because there is a synchronize_rcu() in cgroup_diput() so as long
as we are in rcu_read_lock() we are fine.

OTOH current->mm->owner can exit() right after we fetched its memcg and thus the css_set
can be freed concurrently? And then the cgroup itself after we call rcu_read_unlock()
due to cgroup_diput().
And yet we are doing the mem_cgroup_get() below unconditionally assuming it's
always fine to get a reference to it.

May be I'm missing something?
