Subject: mm: memcg/slab: call flush_memcg_workqueue() only if memcg workqueue is valid

When booting with amd_iommu=off, the following WARNING message
appears:
  AMD-Vi: AMD IOMMU disabled on kernel command-line

  x2apic: IRQ remapping doesn't support X2APIC mode
  x2apic disabled

The warning is caused by the calling of 'kmem_cache_destroy()'
in free_iommu_resources(). Here is the call path:
  free_iommu_resources
    kmem_cache_destroy
      flush_memcg_workqueue
        flush_workqueue

The root cause is that the IOMMU subsystem runs before the workqueue
subsystem, which the variable 'wq_online' is still 'false'.  This leads to
the statement 'if (WARN_ON(!wq_online))' in flush_workqueue() is 'true'.

Since the variable 'memcg_kmem_cache_wq' is not allocated during the time,
it is unnecessary to call flush_memcg_workqueue().  This prevents the
WARNING message triggered by flush_workqueue().
