Hmmm, what happens after the following?

1. A process allocates some rdma resources and get registered on the
   hash table.

2. The process gets migrated to a different cgroup.

3. The process allocates more rdma resources.

Which cgroup would the resources from #3 be attributed to?

That'd be a lot more in line with how other controllers behave.

Thanks.
