The patch titled
Subject: mm: memcg/slab: stop setting page->mem_cgroup pointer for slab pages
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

Subject: mm: memcg/slab: stop setting page->mem_cgroup pointer for slab pages
Every slab page charged to a non-root memory cgroup has a pointer to the
memory cgroup and holds a reference to it, which protects a non-empty
memory cgroup from being released. At the same time the page has a
pointer to the corresponding kmem_cache, and also hold a reference to the
kmem_cache. And kmem_cache by itself holds a reference to the cgroup.
So there is clearly some redundancy, which allows to stop setting the
page->mem_cgroup pointer and rely on getting memcg pointer indirectly via
kmem_cache. Further it will allow to change this pointer easier, without
a need to go over all charged pages.
So let's stop setting page->mem_cgroup pointer for slab pages, and stop
using the css refcounter directly for protecting the memory cgroup from
going away. Instead rely on kmem_cache as an intermediate object.
Make sure that vmstats and shrinker lists are working as previously, as
well as /proc/kpagecgroup interface.
