subject line looks like a left over. It doesn't match the path. Did you
mean
memcg: bail out early from swap accounting when memcg is disabled?

Btw. if this patch was first in the series then you wouldn't need to
mention the warnings that would trigger based on your previous patch.
I am fine with both ways but mentioning the warning is usefule.
