I have the impression this is just churn. Can you call it disabled_key
from the beginning ?

In many cases, this will be just a useless function call. Wouldn't it be 
better if in the disabled case we would not even call those functions? 
It may help some fast paths.

We could define inline versions in memcontrol.h in place of the function 
signatures themselves, and have those to test for the static branch.

Maybe a macro can be used to make it less laborious?
