[RFC][PATCH 6/7] CGroup API: Use descriptions for memory controller API files

From: Paul Menage
Date: Fri Feb 15 2008 - 15:53:26 EST


This patch adds descriptions to the memory controller API files to
indicate that the usage/limit are in bytes; the names of the control
files can then be simplified to usage/limit.

Also removes the unnecessary mem_force_empty_read() function
