Subject[PATCH] mm: do not call mem_cgroup_free() from within mem_cgroup_alloc()
Date
mem_cgroup_free() indirectly calls wb_domain_exit() which is not
prepared to deal with a struct wb_domain object that hasn't executed
wb_domain_init(). For instance, the following warning message is
printed by lockdep if alloc_percpu() fails in mem_cgroup_alloc():

INFO: trying to register non-static key.
the code is fine but needs lockdep annotation.
turning off the locking correctness validator.
CPU: 1 PID: 1950 Comm: mkdir Not tainted 4.10.0+ #151
Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS Bochs 01/01/2011

Fix mem_cgroup_alloc() by doing more granular clean up in case of
failures.
