memcg: memory cgroup resource counters for hierarchy
Add support for building hierarchies in resource counters. Cgroups allows us to build a deep hierarchy, but we currently don't link the resource counters belonging to the memory controller control groups, in the same fashion as the corresponding cgroup entries in the cgroup hierarchy. This patch provides the infrastructure for resource counters that have the same hiearchy as their cgroup counter parts. These set of patches are based on the resource counter hiearchy patches posted by Pavel Emelianov. NOTE: Building hiearchies is expensive, deeper hierarchies imply charging the all the way up to the root. It is known that hiearchies are expensive, so the user needs to be careful and aware of the trade-offs before creating very deep ones.
