Subject: [PATCH -mm v3 5/7] memcg, slab: do not destroy children caches if parent has aliases

Currently we destroy children caches at the very beginning of
kmem_cache_destroy(). This is wrong, because the root cache will not
necessarily be destroyed in the end - if it has aliases (refcount > 0),
kmem_cache_destroy() will simply decrement its refcount and return. In
this case, at best we will get a bunch of warnings in dmesg, like this
one:

  kmem_cache_destroy kmalloc-32:0: Slab cache still has objects
  CPU: 1 PID: 7139 Comm: modprobe Tainted: G    B   W    3.13.0+ #117
  Hardware name:
   ffff88007d7a6368 ffff880039b07e48 ffffffff8168cc2e ffff88007d7a6d68
   ffff88007d7a6300 ffff880039b07e68 ffffffff81175e9f 0000000000000000
   ffff88007d7a6300 ffff880039b07e98 ffffffff811b67c7 ffff88003e803c00

   [<ffffffff816994f9>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b

At worst - if kmem_cache_destroy() will race with an allocation from a
memcg cache - the kernel will panic.

This patch fixes this by moving children caches destruction after the
check if the cache has aliases. Plus, it forbids destroying a root cache
if it still has children caches, because each children cache keeps a
reference to its parent.
