mm: do not call mem_cgroup_free() from within mem_cgroup_alloc()
mem_cgroup_free() indirectly calls wb_domain_exit() which is not prepared to deal with a struct wb_domain object that hasn't executed wb_domain_init(). For instance, the following warning message is printed by lockdep if alloc_percpu() fails in mem_cgroup_alloc(): INFO: trying to register non-static key. the code is fine but needs lockdep annotation. turning off the locking correctness validator.

This is used by both mem_cgroup_free() and mem_cgroup_alloc() clean up.
