4.20-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

commit ba4a45746c362b665e245c50b870615f02f34781 upstream.
Commit 5eed6f1dff87 ("fork,memcg: fix crash in free_thread_stack on
memcg charge fail") fixes a crash caused due to failed memcg charge of
the kernel stack. However the fix misses the cached_stacks case which
this patch fixes. So, the same crash can happen if the memcg charge of
a cached stack is failed.
