I also do wonder if we can do it cleaner, but since it's a fix I don't
want that discussion to hold things up:

Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org>

That said, the lifetime of the root reference on the ID is the online
state, we put that in css_offline. Is there a reason we need to have
the ID ready and the memcg in the IDR before onlining it? Can we do
something like this and not mess with the alloc/free sequence at all?

Michal, Vladimir, am I missing something?
