I can take the v3 in slab tree, if net people ack?
BTW, will this be also useful for Linus's idea of charging struct files only
after they exist? But IIRC there was supposed to be also a part where we
have a way to quickly determine if we're not over limit (while allowing some
overcharge to make it quicker).
Because right now this just overcharges unconditionally, but that's
understandable when the irq context creating the socket can't know the memcg
upfront. In the open() situation this is different.
