Roman Gushchin 63677c745d mm, memcg: reset memory.low during memcg offlining
A removed memory cgroup with a defined memory.low and some belonging
pagecache has very low chances to be freed.

If a cgroup has been removed, there is likely no memory pressure inside
the cgroup, and the pagecache is protected from the external pressure by
the defined low limit.  The cgroup will be freed only after the reclaim
of all belonging pages.  And it will not happen until there are any
reclaimable memory in the system.  That means, there is a good chance,
that a cold pagecache will reside in the memory for an undefined amount
of time, wasting system resources.

This problem was fixed earlier by fa06235b8e ("cgroup: reset css on
destruction"), but it's not a best way to do it, as we can't really
reset all limits/counters during cgroup offlining.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
