Roman Gushchin 8d16e0502a mm: slab: make page_cgroup_ino() to recognize non-compound slab pages properly
commit 221ec5c0a4 upstream.

page_cgroup_ino() doesn't return a valid memcg pointer for non-compound
slab pages, because it depends on PgHead AND PgSlab flags to be set to
determine the memory cgroup from the kmem_cache.  It's correct for
compound pages, but not for generic small pages.  Those don't have PgHead
set, so it ends up returning zero.

Fix this by replacing the condition to PageSlab() && !PageTail().

Before this patch:
  [root@localhost ~]# ./page-types -c /sys/fs/cgroup/user.slice/user-0.slice/user@0.service/ | grep slab
  0x0000000000000080	        38        0  _______S___________________________________	slab

After this patch:
  [root@localhost ~]# ./page-types -c /sys/fs/cgroup/user.slice/user-0.slice/user@0.service/ | grep slab
  0x0000000000000080	       147        0  _______S___________________________________	slab

Also, hwpoison_filter_task() uses output of page_cgroup_ino() in order
to filter error injection events based on memcg.  So if
page_cgroup_ino() fails to return memcg pointer, we just fail to inject
memory error.  Considering that hwpoison filter is for testing, affected
users are limited and the impact should be marginal.

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.
