So this was spotted by a human before any automated system so I presume
that the combination is actually supported and at least build tested.

In particular the incremental patch series that fixes that issue has
the subjects lines below. Andrew if you could apply them that would be great.

[PATCH 0/2] mm->owner to mm->memcg fixes
[PATCH 1/2] memcg: Update the mm->memcg maintenance to work when !CONFIG_MMU
[PATCH 2/2] memcg: Close the race between migration and installing bprm->mm as mm


Andrew since this is essentially a mm patch I presume this work should
go through your tree.

Eric
