Subject: [RFC][PATCH 2/2]  memcg: oom killer disable and hooks for stop and
 recover

From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@...fujitsu.com>

This adds a feature to disable oom-killer for memcg, if disabled,
of course, tasks under memcg will stop.

But now, we have oom-notifier for memcg. And the world around
memcg is not under out-of-memory. memcg's out-of-memory just
shows memcg hits limit. Then, administrator or
management daemon can recover the situation by
	- kill some process
	- enlarge limit, add more swap.
	- migrate some tasks
	- remove file cache on tmps (difficult ?)

TODO:
	more brush up and find races.
