[PATCH 5/5] memcg, tcp_kmem: check for cg_proto in sock_update_memcg

[Michal Hocko <mhocko@kernel.org>]

From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz>

sk_prot->proto_cgroup is allowed to return NULL but sock_update_memcg
doesn't check for NULL. The function relies on the mem_cgroup_is_root
check because we shouldn't get NULL otherwise because
mem_cgroup_from_task will always return !NULL.

All other callers are checking for NULL and we can safely replace
mem_cgroup_is_root() check by cg_proto != NULL which will be more
straightforward (proto_cgroup returns NULL for the root memcg already).
