Currently, we do not clear pointers to per memcg caches in the memcg_params.memcg_caches array when a global cache is destroyed with kmem_cache_destroy. This is fine if the global cache does get destroyed. However, a cache can be left on the list if it still has active objects when kmem_cache_destroy is called (due to a memory leak). If this happens, the entries in the array will point to already freed areas, which is likely to result in data corruption when the cache is reused (via slab merging).
