This means that when we destroy a memcg cache that happened to be empty, those caches may take a lot of time to go away: removing the memcg reference won't destroy them - because there are pending references, and the empty pages will stay there, until a shrinker is called upon for any reason. This patch marks all memcg caches as dead. kmem_cache_shrink is called for the ones who are not yet dead - this will force internal cache reorganization, and then all references to empty pages will be removed. An unlikely branch is used to make sure this case does not affect performance in the usual slab_free path.
