you can remove some ifdefs doing:

#ifdef CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR
	if (likely(!memcg)) {
		rcu_read_lock();
		mem = mem_cgroup_from_task(rcu_dereference(mm->owner));
		/*
		 * For every charge from the cgroup, increment reference count
		 */
		css_get(&mem->css);
		rcu_read_unlock();
	} else {
		mem = memcg;
		css_get(&memcg->css);
	}
	while (res_counter_charge(&mem->res, PAGE_SIZE)) {
		if (!(gfp_mask & __GFP_WAIT))
			goto out;

		if (try_to_free_mem_cgroup_pages(mem, gfp_mask))
			continue;

		/*
		 * try_to_free_mem_cgroup_pages() might not give us a full
		 * picture of reclaim. Some pages are reclaimed and might be
		 * moved to swap cache or just unmapped from the cgroup.
		 * Check the limit again to see if the reclaim reduced the
		 * current usage of the cgroup before giving up
		 */
		if (res_counter_check_under_limit(&mem->res))
			continue;

		if (!nr_retries--) {
			mem_cgroup_out_of_memory(mem, gfp_mask);
			goto out;
		}
	}
	pc->mem_cgroup = mem;
#endif /* CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR */
