Subject: [PATCH v3 10/13] memcg: use static branches when code not in use

We can use static branches to patch the code in or out when not used.

Because the _ACTIVATED bit on kmem_accounted is only set once, we
guarantee that the root memcg will always be selected until all call
sites are patched (see memcg_kmem_enabled).  This guarantees that no
mischarges are applied.

static branch decrement happens when the last reference count from the
kmem accounting in memcg dies. This will only happen when the charges
drop down to 0.
