Inverting the tests gives easier to read code:

if (parent && parent->user_hierarchy)
return -EINVAL;
if (!list_empty(&cgroup->children))
return -EBUSY;
memcg->kmem_independent_accounting = val != 0;
return 0;

NFI about the logic...
On the face of it the tests don't seem related to each other
or to the assignment!
