Hi,

When I doing the follow test in kernel-5.7-rc2, I found mem-free is decreased

#!/bin/sh
cd /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/

for((i=0;i<45;i++))
do
        for((j=0;j<60000;j++))
        do
                mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/yyl-cg$j
        done
        sleep 1
        ls /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/ | grep yyl | xargs rmdir
done


before test the /proc/meminfo is:

after test and drop caches, the /proc/cgroups is:
#subsys_name    hierarchy       num_cgroups     enabled
cpuset  11      1       1
cpu     2       1       1
cpuacct 2       1       1
blkio   8       1       1
memory  5       83      1
devices 3       41      1
freezer 6       1       1
net_cls 9       1       1
perf_event      10      1       1
net_prio        9       1       1
hugetlb 4       1       1
pids    7       51      1
rdma    12      1       1

All the dir that created by the script is already removed, but I got:
 - MemFree is decreased about 6.7G
 - SUnreclaim is increased about 4.6G
 - Percpu is increased about 1.7G

It seems we have memory leak in cgroup ?
