Since commit 2d1c498072de ("mm: memcontrol: make swap tracking an integral part of memory control"), the cgroup swap arrays are used to track memory ownership at the time of swap readahead and swapoff, even if swap space *accounting* has been turned off by the user via swapaccount=0 (which sets cgroup_memory_noswap). However, the patch was overzealous: by simply dropping the cgroup_memory_noswap conditionals in the swapon, swapoff and uncharge path, it caused the cgroup arrays being allocated even when the memory controller as a whole is disabled. This is a waste of that memory. Restore mem_cgroup_disabled() checks, implied previously by cgroup_memory_noswap, in the swapon, swapoff, and swap_entry_free callbacks.
