Hmm....can't we do this by
kmem_cache = kmem_cache_create(...., ...., SLAB_XXX_XXX | SLAB_MEMCG_AWARE)
kmem_cache_alloc(kmem_cache, flags)
=> find a memcg_kmem_cache for the thread. if it doesn't exist, create it.
BTW, comparing ANON/FILE caches, we'll have many kinds of gfp_t flags.
Do we handle it correctly ?
Maybe I don't fully understand your implemenatation...but try to comment.

Why 'pages' should be charged to a new memcg ?
A newly created memcg starts with res_counter.usage != 0 ??

get even if allocation failure ? (and for what updating refcnt ?)

Hmm... memcg should know _all_ kmem_caches when it's created. Right ?
Then, modules will not use memcg aware kmem_cache...
