Different parts of this union are used for root and non-root caches. A part with destroying work is used only for non-root caches. I fixed the same problem in another place v3.9-rc1-16204-gf101a94, but didn't notice this one. This patch fixes the kernel panic: [ 46.848187] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 000000fffffffeb8 [ 46.849026] IP: [] kmem_cache_destroy_memcg_children+0x6c/0xc0 [ 46.849092] PGD 0 [ 46.849092] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP ...
