The last patch has a problem on define. this version could fix it.

BTW, I see some !memcg happens when MEMCG compilered but disabled by cgroup_disable

Subject: [PATCH] mm/memcg: don't try charge swap if memcg disabled

If we disabled memcg by cgroup_disable=memory, the swap charges are
still called. Let's return from the funcs earlier and keep WARN_ON
monitor.
Do I get it right that this is on top of your patch to remove the memcg
check or a preparatory work? Both are good but it would be better to
call that out specifically for clarity (along with the warning if that
is a follow up fix).
