Subject: [PATCH] memcg: fix kmem_account_flags check in memcg_can_account_kmem()

We should start kmem accounting for a memory cgroup only after both its
kmem limit is set (KMEM_ACCOUNTED_ACTIVE) and related call sites are
patched (KMEM_ACCOUNTED_ACTIVATED). Currently memcg_can_account_kmem()
allows kmem accounting even if only one of the conditions is true.
Fix it.
