Yes, although the kernel considers such a config to be broken, and
prints a warning to the log, it does allow it.

I don't think that is relevant as we get the memcg from objcg->memcg
which is set during reparenting. I suppose however, we can determine if
the objcg was reparented by inspecting memcg->objcg.

If we just check use_hierarchy then objects directly charged to the
memcg where use_hierarchy=0 will not be uncharged. However, maybe it is
better to check if it was reparented and if use_hierarchy=0.
