Subject: Re: [PATCH v15 2/7] res_counter: introduce ratelimiting attributes

Subject: io-throttle: reduce the size of res_counter

Reduce the size of struct res_counter after the introduction of
ratelimited resources:

- replace policy with a more generic unsigned long flags and encode the
  throttling policy using a single bit of flags

- remove the attribute capacity: max_usage is not used in ratelimited
  resources and capacity is not used in all the other cases (it has been
  introduced only for token-bucket ratelimited resources), so just merge
  capacitiy into max_usage

On a 64-bit architecture:

  vanilla:					sizeof(struct res_counter) = 48
  with-io-throttle:				sizeof(struct res_counter) = 72
  with-io-throttle-and-reduced-res-counter:	sizeof(struct res_counter) = 64

[ This patch must be applied on top of io-throttle v15. ]
