Subject: [PATCHv2] mm/slab: fix race with dereferencing NULL ptr in alloc_calls_show

memcg_destroy_kmem_caches shutdowns in the first place kmem_caches under
slab_mutex which involves freeing NUMA node structures for kmem_cache
and only then under release_caches removes corresponding sysfs files for
these caches. Which may lead to dereferencing NULL ptr on read.
Lets remove sysfs files right there.

Fixes the following panic:
