Thank you for your report & patch.
(and I'm sorry that I've not been active these days ;( )

This patch looks good to me and, IIUC, would be enough to fix this bug.

	Reviewed-by: Daisuke Nishimura <nishimura@....nes.nec.co.jp>

BTW, it wouldn't cause any problem, I think former rcu_read_lock()/unlock()
in task_in_mem_cgroup() is unnecessary, because try_get_mem_cgroup_from_mm()
calls them for itself.


Thanks,
Daisuke Nishimura.
