Subject: mm: memcg/slab: fix root memcg vmstats
If we reparent the slab objects to the root memcg, when we free the slab
object, we need to update the per-memcg vmstats to keep it correct for the
root memcg. Now this at least affects the vmstat of NR_KERNEL_STACK_KB
for !CONFIG_VMAP_STACK when the thread stack size is smaller than the
PAGE_SIZE.
David said: "I assume that without this fix that the root memcg's
vmstat would always be inflated if we reparented."
