In general, seems reasonable to me as quick hack for root cgroup.
thank you.

Finally, we'll have to do some rework for light-weight res_counter.
But yes, it will take some amount of time.
My only concern is account leak, but, if some leak, it's current code's
bug, not this patch.
And..hmm...I like following style other than open-coded.
==
int mem_coutner_charge(struct mem_cgroup *mem)
{
if (mem_cgroup_is_root(mem))
return 0; // always success
return res_counter_charge(....)
}
==
But maybe nitpick.
Thanks,
