code :-)

The reason why I'd rather move those checks from memcg_set_shrinker_bit
to call sites is that now looking at the function code makes me wonder
why this function has to turn into a no-op if shrinker_id < 0 or memcg
is NULL, why these corner cases are even possible. To understand that, I
have to look at all places where this function is called, which are
located in a different source file. This is rather inconvenient IMO. But
I guess it's bikesheding so I don't insist.
