Johannes Weiner 9f45717924 mm: memcontrol: fix warning when allocating the root cgroup 
Commit 3e38e0aaca ("mm: memcg: charge memcg percpu memory to the
parent cgroup") adds memory tracking to the memcg kernel structures
themselves to make cgroups liable for the memory they are consuming
through the allocation of child groups (which can be significant).

This code is a bit awkward as it's spread out through several functions:
The outermost function does memalloc_use_memcg(parent) to set up
current->active_memcg, which designates which cgroup to charge, and the
inner functions pass GFP_ACCOUNT to request charging for specific
allocations.  To make sure this dependency is satisfied at all times -
to make sure we don't randomly charge whoever is calling the functions -
the inner functions warn on !current->active_memcg.

However, this triggers a false warning when the root memcg itself is
allocated.  No parent exists in this case, and so current->active_memcg
is rightfully NULL.  It's a false positive, not indicative of a bug.

Delete the warnings for now, we can revisit this later.

Fixes: 3e38e0aaca ("mm: memcg: charge memcg percpu memory to the parent cgroup")

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
