Subject: [PATCH] selftests: cgroup: add test for memory.low corner cases

Add a more complicated test for memory.low hierarchical behavior.
It creates the following hierarchy:
        A memory.low = 50M
        B memory.low = 50M
        C memory.low = 50M
        D memory.low = 50M memory.(swap.)max = 200M
        E memory.low = 50M
       / \
      F'  F memory.low = 50M
          G memory.low = 50M
          H memory.low = 50M
          I memory.low = 50M
          J memory.low = 50M
          K memory.low = 50M, memory.usage = 50M

First, it creates local memory pressure by charging pagecache to F'
and checks that K's memory.low actually works (usage ~= 50M).
The it sets C's memory.low to 0 and repeats the test to check
that K's memory.low is not working anymore, despite
that memory.low is disabled above the cgroup with memory pressure (D).
