Shakeel Butt 6df4ad7047 memcg: initiate deprecation of oom_control
The oom_control provides functionality to disable memcg oom-killer,
notifications on oom-kill and reading the stats regarding oom-kills.  This
interface was mainly introduced to provide functionality for userspace
oom-killers.  However it is not robust enough and only supports OOM
handling in the page fault path.

For v2, the users can use the combination of memory.events notifications,
memory.high and PSI to provide userspace OOM-killing functionality. 
Actually LMKD in Android and OOMd in systemd and Meta infrastructure
already use PSI in combination with other stats to implement userspace
OOM-killing.

Let's start the deprecation process for v1 and gather the info on how the
current users are using this interface and work on providing a more robust
functionality in v2.
