For the slub, it seems to work okay. But I had to use the trick that for
the memcg-specific kmalloc caches, they come from the normal caches
rather than the special kmalloc pool. Since we are already paying the
penalty of dealing with the memcg finding, I hope this is okay.
For the slab, my investigation wasn't that deep. But basic functionality
works okay.
