Ah, no, the issue I've reproduced is already fixed by commit b749ecfaf6c5
("mm: memcg/slab: fix panic in __free_slab() caused by premature memcg pointer release").

Also, can you, please, provide you config?
And you mentioned some panics, but didn't send any dmesg messages.
Can you, please, provide them?

Thanks!
