4.13-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Eric Dumazet <eduma...@google.com> [ Upstream commit c0576e3975084d4699b7bfef578613fb8e1144f6 ] If for some reason, the newly allocated child need to be freed, we will call cgroup_put() (via sk_free_unlock_clone()) while the corresponding cgroup_get() was not yet done, and we will free memory too soon.
