You should be adding your Sign-off-by to every patch you post to the
kernel mailing list (see Documentation/SubmittingPatches).

It is also really important to mention which tree does this apply to and
ideally also note which change has broken the code. In this particular
case I have tried the current Linus tree (4c07e2ddab5b) and
$ grep 'CONFIG_SLUB\|CONFIG_MEMCG' .config
# CONFIG_MEMCG is not set
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG=y
CONFIG_SLUB=y
CONFIG_SLUB_CPU_PARTIAL=y
# CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON is not set
# CONFIG_SLUB_STATS is not set

which means CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is not enabled as well. And the
compilation succeeds. What is your config file?
