memcg: fix wrong pointer initialization at page migration when memcg is disabled.

Browse source 
Lee Schermerhorn reported that he saw bad pointer dereference in
mem_cgroup_end_migration() when he disabled memcg by boot option.

memcg's page migration logic works as

	mem_cgroup_prepare_migration(page, &ptr);
	do page migration
	mem_cgroup_end_migration(page, ptr);

Now, ptr is not initialized in prepare_migration when memcg is disabled
by boot option. This causes panic in end_migration. This patch fixes it.
