Every slab page charged to a non-root memory cgroup has a pointer
to the memory cgroup and holds a reference to it, which protects
a non-empty memory cgroup from being released. At the same time
the page has a pointer to the corresponding kmem_cache, and also
hold a reference to the kmem_cache. And kmem_cache by itself
holds a reference to the cgroup.

So there is clearly some redundancy, which allows to stop setting
the page->mem_cgroup pointer and rely on getting memcg pointer
indirectly via kmem_cache. Further it will allow to change this
pointer easier, without a need to go over all charged pages.

So let's stop setting page->mem_cgroup pointer for slab pages,
and stop using the css refcounter directly for protecting
the memory cgroup from going away. Instead rely on kmem_cache
as an intermediate object.

Make sure that vmstats and shrinker lists are working as previously,
as well as /proc/kpagecgroup interface.
