Hi, Kairui,
Sorry for jumping in so late.

I take a look at memcontrol.c, it appears that almost all extern
functions check mem_cgroup_disabled() as the first step. So I guess
that this is a convention of memcontrol.c? And the benefit of the
change is minimal. In contrast, if someone makes more changes to
mem_cgroup_swapin_uncharge_swap() in the future, he may forget to add
this back. So, it may be unnecessary to make the change?
