mm: memcontrol: fix warning when allocating the root cgroup
Commit3e38e0aaca
("mm: memcg: charge memcg percpu memory to the parent cgroup") adds memory tracking to the memcg kernel structures themselves to make cgroups liable for the memory they are consuming through the allocation of child groups (which can be significant). This code is a bit awkward as it's spread out through several functions: The outermost function does memalloc_use_memcg(parent) to set up current->active_memcg, which designates which cgroup to charge, and the inner functions pass GFP_ACCOUNT to request charging for specific allocations. To make sure this dependency is satisfied at all times - to make sure we don't randomly charge whoever is calling the functions - the inner functions warn on !current->active_memcg. However, this triggers a false warning when the root memcg itself is allocated. No parent exists in this case, and so current->active_memcg is rightfully NULL. It's a false positive, not indicative of a bug. Delete the warnings for now, we can revisit this later. Fixes:3e38e0aaca
