Is there a way to find the call chain of "memcg-aware shrinker is
registered before cgroup_init()"?

Irrespective I think we can revert a3e72739b7a7e ("cgroup: fix too
early usage of static_branch_disable()") as 6041186a3258 ("init:
initialize jump labels before command line option parsing") has moved
the initialization of jump labels before command line parsing.
