set_active_memcg() checks in_interrupt() again. Maybe we can introduce another
helper to avoid checking it twice? Something like

static inline struct mem_cgroup *
set_active_memcg_int(struct mem_cgroup *memcg)
{
        struct mem_cgroup *old;

        old = this_cpu_read(int_active_memcg);
        this_cpu_write(int_active_memcg, memcg);
        return old;
}

Thanks,
