Subject: [PATCH v1 1/3] mm: memcg: deprecate the non-hierarchical mode
The non-hierarchical cgroup v1 mode is a legacy of early days
of the memory controller and doesn't bring any value today.
However, it complicates the code and creates many edge cases
all over the memory controller code.
It's a good time to deprecate it completely.
Functionally this patch enabled is by default for all cgroups
and forbids switching it off. Nothing changes if cgroup v2 is used:
hierarchical mode was enforced from scratch.
To protect the ABI memory.use_hierarchy interface is preserved
with a limited functionality: reading always returns "1", writing
of "1" passes silently, writing of any other value fails with
-EINVAL and a warning to dmesg (on the first occasion).
