Currently, when __kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() fails, it frees back the objects that were allocated before the failure, using kmem_cache_free_bulk(). Because kmem_cache_free_bulk() calls the free hooks (KASAN etc.) and those expect objects that were processed by the post alloc hooks, slab_post_alloc_hook() is called before kmem_cache_free_bulk(). This is wasteful, although not a big concern in practice for the rare error path. But in order to efficiently handle percpu array batch refill and free in the near future, we will also need a variant of kmem_cache_free_bulk() that avoids the free hooks. So introduce it now and use it for the failure path. In case of failure we however still need to perform memcg uncharge so handle that in a new memcg_slab_alloc_error_hook(). Thanks to Chengming Zhou for noticing the missing uncharge. As a consequence, __kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() no longer needs the objcg parameter, remove it.

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.
