Subject: [PATCH] memcg: force charge kmem counter too
Based on several conditions the kernel can decide to force charge an
allocation for a memcg i.e. overcharge memcg->memory and memcg->memsw
counters. Do the same for memcg->kmem counter too. In cgroup-v1, this
bug can cause a __GFP_NOFAIL kmem allocation fail if an explicit limit
on kmem counter is set and reached.
