This printk isn't continuing any previous printk, so using KERN_CONT here
will require a short header to be printed first ("Memcg: "?) with
KERN_INFO before the iterations.

Spurious newline.

Eek, is there really no way to avoid this if-conditional and just use
for_each_mem_cgroup_tree() for everything and use

mem_cgroup_iter_break(memcg, iter);
break;

for !memcg->use_hierarchy?

I think this should be folded into mem_cgroup_print_oom_info(), I don't
see a need for a new function.

mem_cgroup_print_oom_info() already returns immediately for !memcg, so I'm
not sure why this change is made.

Well that's disappointing if memcg == root_mem_cgroup, we'd probably like
to know the global memory state to determine what the problem is.
