Objects can be created from memcg-limited tasks
but its misuse may lead to host OOM.

Can you talk a bit more about the lifetime of the object created from
this kmem cache? Also who and what operation can trigger allocation?
Similarly can you add this information to the remaining patches of
your series as well?

The lifetime is less of a concern since we have a slab reparenting mechanism,
unless it's a very short-living object.
