So there can be a case that the usage is zero but some of the LRUs are not empty if all of those pages have already been uncharged by the owner process. OTOH, mem_cgroup_del_lru_list(), which can be called asynchronously with rmdir, accesses the mem_cgroup, so this access can cause a problem if it races with rmdir because the mem_cgroup might have been freed by rmdir. Actually, I saw a bug which seems to be caused by this race.
