group->memcg is only NULL when memcg is disabled or there is some
offlining race. Can you make memalloc_use_memcg(NULL) mean that it
should charge root_mem_cgroup instead of current->mm->memcg? That way
we can make this site unconditional while retaining the behavior:

	gfp_t gfp = GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ACCOUNT;

	memalloc_use_memcg(group->memcg);
	kmem_cache_alloc(..., gfp);
out:
	memalloc_unuse_memcg();

(dropping old_memcg and the unuse parameter as per the other mail)
