Subject: mm: kmem: scoped objcg protection
Date: Thu, 19 Oct 2023 15:53:44 -0700

Switch to a scope-based protection of the objcg pointer on slab/kmem
allocation paths.  Instead of using the get_() semantics in the
pre-allocation hook and put the reference afterwards, let's rely on the
fact that objcg is pinned by the scope.

It's possible because:
1) if the objcg is received from the current task struct, the task is
   keeping a reference to the objcg.
2) if the objcg is received from an active memcg (remote charging),
   the memcg is pinned by the scope and has a reference to the
   corresponding objcg.
