Subject: [PATCH] mm: memcg/slab: fix obj_cgroup_charge() return value handling

Commit 10befea91b61 ("mm: memcg/slab: use a single set of kmem_caches for all allocations") introduced a regression into the handling of the obj_cgroup_charge() return value. If a non-zero value is returned (indicating of exceeding one of memory.max limits), the allocation should fail, instead of falling back to non-accounted mode.

To make the code more readable, move memcg_slab_pre_alloc_hook() and memcg_slab_post_alloc_hook() calling conditions into bodies of these hooks.
