Subject: [PATCH v2] mm: memcontrol: avoid unused function warning

A bugfix in v4.8-rc2 introduced a harmless warning when CONFIG_MEMCG_SWAP
is disabled but CONFIG_MEMCG is enabled:

mm/memcontrol.c:4085:27: error: 'mem_cgroup_id_get_online' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]
 static struct mem_cgroup *mem_cgroup_id_get_online(struct mem_cgroup *memcg)

This moves the function inside of the #ifdef block that hides the
calling function, to avoid the warning.
