Subject: [PATCH] mm/shmem: set default tmpfs size according to memcg limit

Currently the default tmpfs size is totalram_pages / 2 if mount tmpfs
without "-o size=XXX".
When we mount tmpfs in a container(i.e. docker), it is also
totalram_pages / 2 regardless of the memory limit on this container.
That may easily cause OOM if tmpfs occupied too much memory when swap is
off.
So when we mount tmpfs in a memcg, the default size should be limited by
the memcg memory.limit.
