Ah, OK.
It should be OK then.

An if/else with IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SOMETHING) is folded at build time, so 
it makes no difference with an #ifdef in terms of performance.

However it has the advantage of making the entire code visible to the 
compiler at all times, which means that you don't have to build it 
several times with difference value for CONFIG_SOMETHING in order to see 
whether your code is valid or not.

As an exemple, if you had written mod_mem_use_vmalloc() with 
IS_ENABLED() instead of an #ifdef, you would have detected the problem 
in v8 even without building with CONFIG_ARCH_WANTS_MODULES_DATA_IN_VMALLOC
