This patch effectively reverts commit9f1c2674b3("net: memcontrol: defer call to mem_cgroup_sk_alloc()"). Moving mem_cgroup_sk_alloc() to the inet_csk_accept() completely breaks memcg socket memory accounting, as packets received before memcg pointer initialization are not accounted and are causing refcounting underflow on socket release. Actually the free-after-use problem was fixed by commitc0576e3975("net: call cgroup_sk_alloc() earlier in sk_clone_lock()") for the cgroup pointer. So, let's revert it and call mem_cgroup_sk_alloc() just before cgroup_sk_alloc(). This is safe, as we hold a reference to the socket we're cloning, and it holds a reference to the memcg. Also, let's drop BUG_ON(mem_cgroup_is_root()) check from mem_cgroup_sk_alloc(). I see no reasons why bumping the root memcg counter is a good reason to panic, and there are no realistic ways to hit it.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
