mm: memcontrol: do not bypass slab charge if memcg is offline

Slab pages are charged in two steps.  First, an appropriate per memcg
cache is selected (see memcg_kmem_get_cache) basing on the current
context, then the new slab page is charged to the memory cgroup which
the selected cache was created for (see memcg_charge_slab ->
__memcg_kmem_charge_memcg).  It is OK to bypass kmemcg charge at step 1,
but if step 1 succeeded and we successfully allocated a new slab page,
step 2 must be performed, otherwise we would get a per memcg kmem cache
which contains a slab that does not hold a reference to the memory
cgroup owning the cache.  Since per memcg kmem caches are destroyed on
memcg css free, this could result in freeing a cache while there are
still active objects in it.

However, currently we will bypass slab page charge if the memory cgroup
owning the cache is offline (see __memcg_kmem_charge_memcg).  This is
very unlikely to occur in practice, because for this to happen a process
must be migrated to a different cgroup and the old cgroup must be
removed while the process is in kmalloc somewhere between steps 1 and 2
(e.g.  trying to allocate a new page).  Nevertheless, it's still better
to eliminate such a possibility.
