Please reflect the rationale from this discussion thread in the commit
message and help text. Also, I'd much prefer to name it pids
controller after the resource it's controlling.

I don't think it's a good idea to use page_counter outside memcg.
This is pretty much an implementation detail of memcg. The only
reason that file is out there is because of the wacky tcp controller
which is somewhat part of memcg (and to be replaced by proper kmemcg).
Either use plain atomic_t or percpu_counter with controlled batch
value (e.g. upto 10% deviation allowed from the target or sth). Given
that fork/exit is pretty heavy path, just plain atomic_t is prolly
enough.

can_attach() can't fail in the unified hierarchy. Circumvention of
configuration by moving processes to children is prevented through
hierarchical limit enforcement.

Please make it handle "max".

Ditto when reading back.

And drop this file.

Thanks.
