Subject: [RFC][PATCH 3/4] Memory controller soft limit organize cgroups

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

This patch introduces a RB-Tree for storing memory cgroups that are over their
soft limit. The overall goal is to

1. Add a memory cgroup to the RB-Tree when the soft limit is exceeded.
   We are careful about updates, updates take place only after a particular
   time interval has passed
2. We remove the node from the RB-Tree when the usage goes below the soft
   limit

The next set of patches will exploit the RB-Tree to get the group that is
over its soft limit by the largest amount and reclaim from it, when we
face memory contention.
