The patch titled
Subject: memcg: check that kmem_cache has memcg_params before accessing it
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
memcg-check-that-kmem_cache-has-memcg_params-before-accessing-it.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

Subject: memcg: check that kmem_cache has memcg_params before accessing it
If the system had a few memory groups and all of them were destroyed,
memcg_limited_groups_array_size has non-zero value, but all new caches
are created without memcg_params, because memcg_kmem_enabled() returns
false.
We try to enumirate child caches in a few places and all of them are
potentially dangerous.
For example my kernel is compiled with CONFIG_SLAB and it crashed when I
tryed to mount a NFS share after a few experiments with kmemcg.
