Subject: [RFC][PATCH 4/4] Memory controller soft limit reclaim on contention

From: Balbir Singh <balbir@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

This patch allows reclaim from memory cgroups on contention (via the
__alloc_pages_internal() path). If a order greater than 0 is specified, we
anyway fall back on try_to_free_pages().

memory cgroup soft limit reclaim finds the group that exceeds its soft limit
by the largest amount and reclaims pages from it and then reinserts the
cgroup into its correct place in the rbtree.
