Reason that I send this patch is that although patch 1 fixes the issue that too many kworkers are created, kmem_cache creation/destory is still slowed by synchronize_sched() and it would cause kmemcg usage counting delayed. I'm not sure how bad it is but it's generally better to start accounting as soon as possible. With patch 2 for SLUB and this patch for SLAB, performance of kmem_cache creation/destory would recover.
