Subject: [PATCH] mm: list_lru: fix UAF for memory cgroup

The mem_cgroup_from_slab_obj() is supposed to be called under rcu
lock or cgroup_mutex or others which could prevent returned memcg
from being freed. Fix it by adding missing rcu read lock.

Fixes: 0a97c01cd20bb ("list_lru: allow explicit memcg and NUMA node selection)
