This would result in hitting the VM_BUG_ON in __memcg_kmem_get_cache. As suggested by Vladimir Davydov, change slab_post_alloc_hook() to be able to handle an array of objects. A subtle detail is, loop iterator "i" in slab_post_alloc_hook() must have same type (size_t) as size argument. This helps the compiler to easier realize that it can remove the loop, when all debug statements inside loop evaluates to nothing. Note, this is only an issue because the kernel is compiled with GCC option: -fno-strict-overflow In slab_alloc_node() the compiler inlines and optimizes the invocation of slab_post_alloc_hook(s, flags, 1, &object) by removing the loop and access object directly.
