Subject: [RFC][-mm] Add an owner to the mm_struct (v4)



Changelog v3
------------

1. Add mm->owner change callbacks using cgroups

This patch removes the mem_cgroup member from mm_struct and instead adds
an owner. This approach was suggested by Paul Menage. The advantage of
this approach is that, once the mm->owner is known, using the subsystem
id, the cgroup can be determined. It also allows several control groups
that are virtually grouped by mm_struct, to exist independent of the memory
controller i.e., without adding mem_cgroup's for each controller,
to mm_struct.

A new config option CONFIG_MM_OWNER is added and the memory resource
controller selects this config option.

NOTE: This patch was developed on top of 2.6.25-rc5-mm1 and is applied on top
of the memory-controller-move-to-own-slab patch (which is already present
in the Andrew's patchset).

This patch also adds cgroup callbacks to notify subsystems when mm->owner
changes. The mm_cgroup_changed callback is called with the task_lock()
of the new task held and is called just prior to changing the mm->owner.

I am indebted to Paul Menage for the several reviews of this patchset
and helping me make it lighter and simpler.

This patch was tested on a powerpc box.
