Baoquan He 08d1d0e6d0 memcg: only record foreign writebacks with dirty pages when memcg is not disabled 
In kdump kernel, memcg usually is disabled with 'cgroup_disable=memory'
for saving memory.  Now kdump kernel will always panic when dump vmcore
to local disk:

  BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000ab8
  Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI
  CPU: 0 PID: 598 Comm: makedumpfile Not tainted 5.3.0+ #26
  Hardware name: HPE ProLiant DL385 Gen10/ProLiant DL385 Gen10, BIOS A40 10/02/2018
  RIP: 0010:mem_cgroup_track_foreign_dirty_slowpath+0x38/0x140
  Call Trace:
   __set_page_dirty+0x52/0xc0
   iomap_set_page_dirty+0x50/0x90
   iomap_write_end+0x6e/0x270

   ksys_write+0x59/0xd0
   do_syscall_64+0x59/0x1e0
   entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9

And this will corrupt the 1st kernel too with 'cgroup_disable=memory'.

Via the trace and with debugging, it is pointing to commit 97b27821b4
("writeback, memcg: Implement foreign dirty flushing") which introduced
this regression.  Disabling memcg causes the null pointer dereference at
uninitialized data in function mem_cgroup_track_foreign_dirty_slowpath().

Fix it by returning directly if memcg is disabled, but not trying to
record the foreign writebacks with dirty pages.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
