Hi Waiman!

Sorry for the late reply. The patch overall looks good to me,
except one nit. Please feel free to use my ack:

A nit: it can be done from kmemcg_cache_deactivate() instead,
and then you don't have to do it in slab and slub separately.

Since it's not slab- or slub-specific code, it'd be better, IMO,
to put it into slab_common.c.

Thanks!
