4.7-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Vladimir Davydov <vdavydov@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 1f47b61fb4077936465dcde872a4e5cc4fe708da upstream. An offline memory cgroup might have anonymous memory or shmem left charged to it and no swap. Since only swap entries pin the id of an offline cgroup, such a cgroup will have no id and so an attempt to swapout its anon/shmem will not store memory cgroup info in the swap cgroup map. As a result, memcg->swap or memcg->memsw will never get uncharged from it and any of its ascendants. Fix this by always charging swapout to the first ancestor cgroup that hasn't released its id yet.
