Now, memory cgroup has 'mem_cgroup_disabled()' in memcontrol.h

I made a brief trial to use static_branch() for that function. At doing that,
I thought it will be better to implement generic cgroup functions rather
than having memory cgroup's its own one.

This series consists of 3 patches
1 .... implement cgroup_xxxx_disabled() in generic.
2 .... use jump_label for cgroup_xxxx_disabled()
3 .... remove mem_cgroup_disabled() in memcontrol.c

And I post this series for getting review/comments.
I'm not sure patches for using jump_label is worth to be merged.

I did a test to run a loop
	while(-) {
		mmap(1M)
		touch all pages
		munmap()
	}

and measured performance score in ROOT cgroup. Here,

(Before patch)
   182,932,842,128 cycles                    #    0.000 GHz                     [33.33%]

           159,908 cache-misses              #    0.021 % of all cache refs     [50.00%]
    33,253,084,874 branches                                                     [33.34%]
       109,796,792 branch-misses             #    0.33% of all branches         [33.34%]

      58.289265709 seconds time elapsed

(After patch)
 Performance counter stats for './malloc 1':

   183,068,407,487 cycles                    #    0.000 GHz                     [33.33%]

            95,562 cache-misses              #    0.012 % of all cache refs     [50.00%]
    32,755,318,286 branches                                                     [33.34%]
        77,774,624 branch-misses             #    0.24% of all branches         [33.34%]

      58.332356996 seconds time elapsed

There is no differece in 'time' ;) 
But I got an impression that 'branch' score gets better in several tests.

Thanks,

P.S. maybe I can replace 'do_swap_account' with jump_label, too.
