From: Muchun Song <songmuchun@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit d38a2b7a9c939e6d7329ab92b96559ccebf7b135 upstream. If the kmem_cache refcount is greater than one, we should not mark the root kmem_cache as dying. If we mark the root kmem_cache dying incorrectly, the non-root kmem_cache can never be destroyed. It resulted in memory leak when memcg was destroyed. We can use the following steps to reproduce. 1) Use kmem_cache_create() to create a new kmem_cache named A. 2) Coincidentally, the kmem_cache A is an alias for kmem_cache B, so the refcount of B is just increased. 3) Use kmem_cache_destroy() to destroy the kmem_cache A, just decrease the B's refcount but mark the B as dying. 4) Create a new memory cgroup and alloc memory from the kmem_cache B. It leads to create a non-root kmem_cache for allocating memory. 5) When destroy the memory cgroup created in the step 4), the non-root kmem_cache can never be destroyed. If we repeat steps 4) and 5), this will cause a lot of memory leak. So only when refcount reach zero, we mark the root kmem_cache as dying.
