-	 * Disabling accounting is only relevant for some specific memcg
-	 * internal allocations. Therefore we would initially not have such
-	 * check here, since direct calls to the page allocator that are
-	 * accounted to kmemcg (alloc_kmem_pages and friends) only happen
-	 * outside memcg core. We are mostly concerned with cache allocations,
-	 * and by having this test at memcg_kmem_get_cache, we are already able
-	 * to relay the allocation to the root cache and bypass the memcg cache
-	 * altogether.
-	 *
-	 * There is one exception, though: the SLUB allocator does not create
-	 * large order caches, but rather service large kmallocs directly from
-	 * the page allocator. Therefore, the following sequence when backed by
-	 * the SLUB allocator:
-	 *
-	 *	memcg_stop_kmem_account();
-	 *	kmalloc(<large_number>)
-	 *	memcg_resume_kmem_account();
-	 *
-	 * would effectively ignore the fact that we should skip accounting,
-	 * since it will drive us directly to this function without passing
-	 * through the cache selector memcg_kmem_get_cache. Such large
-	 * allocations are extremely rare but can happen, for instance, for the
-	 * cache arrays. We bring this test here.
