[PATCH mmotm 2/2] memcg: allow mem.limit bigger than memsw.limitiff unlimited

From: Daisuke Nishimura
Date: Tue Jun 02 2009 - 23:16:46 EST


Now users cannot set mem.limit bigger than memsw.limit.
This patch allows mem.limit bigger than memsw.limit iff mem.limit==unlimited.

By this, users can set memsw.limit without setting mem.limit.
I think it's usefull if users want to limit memsw only.
They must set mem.limit first and memsw.limit to the same value now for this purpose.
They can save the first step by this patch.
