Subject: [PATCH v2 8/8] memcg: generate file modified notifications on
 "memory.events"

cgroup core only recently grew generic notification support.  Wire up
"memory.events" so that it triggers a file modified event whenever its
content changes.

v2: Refreshed on top of mem_cgroup relocation.

Hello,

Once cgroup/for-4.4 gets propagated to mm, this should apply cleanly.
Alternatively, I can apply it through the cgroup tree.  Which would
you prefer?

Thanks.
