The per-cpu stock_lock protects cached memcg and cached objcg and their respective fields. However there is no dependency between these fields and it is better to have fine grained separate locks for cached memcg and cached objcg. This decoupling of locks allows us to make the memcg charge cache and objcg charge cache to be nmi safe independently. At the moment, memcg charge cache is already nmi safe and this decoupling will allow to make memcg charge cache work without disabling irqs.

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 reStructuredText 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.
