4.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Michal Hocko <[email protected]> commit 4eaf431f6f71bbed40a4c733ffe93a7e8cedf9d9 upstream. syzbot has triggered a NULL ptr dereference when allocation fault injection enforces a failure and alloc_mem_cgroup_per_node_info initializes memcg->nodeinfo only half way through. But __mem_cgroup_free still tries to free all per-node data and dereferences pn->lruvec_stat_cpu unconditioanlly even if the specific per-node data hasn't been initialized. The bug is quite unlikely to hit because small allocations do not fail and we would need quite some numa nodes to make struct mem_cgroup_per_node large enough to cross the costly order.
