[PATCH -mm 3/6] slab: use css id for naming per memcg caches

From: Vladimir Davydov
Date: Fri Jan 16 2015 - 09:13:33 EST


Currently, we use mem_cgroup->kmemcg_id to guarantee kmem_cache->name
uniqueness. This is correct, because kmemcg_id is only released on css
free after destroying all per memcg caches.

However, I am going to change that and release kmemcg_id on css offline,
because it is not wise to keep it for so long, wasting valuable entries
of memcg_cache_params->memcg_caches arrays. Therefore, to preserve cache
name uniqueness, let us switch to css->id.
