Subject: [PATCH v2] mm: allow to decrease swap.max below actual swap usage

Currently an attempt to set swap.max into a value lower
than the actual swap usage fails. And a user can't do much
with it, except turning off swap globally (using swapoff).

This patch aims to fix this issue by allowing setting swap.max
into any value (which corresponds to cgroup v2 API design),
and schedule a background job to fit swap size into the new limit.

The following script can be used to test the memory.swap behavior:
  #!/bin/bash

  mkdir -p /sys/fs/cgroup/test_swap
  echo 100M > /sys/fs/cgroup/test_swap/memory.max
  echo max > /sys/fs/cgroup/test_swap/memory.swap.max

  mkdir -p /sys/fs/cgroup/test_swap_2
  echo 100M > /sys/fs/cgroup/test_swap_2/memory.max
  echo max > /sys/fs/cgroup/test_swap_2/memory.swap.max

  echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/test_swap/cgroup.procs
  allocate 200M &

  echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/test_swap_2/cgroup.procs
  allocate 200M &

  sleep 2

  cat /sys/fs/cgroup/test_swap/memory.swap.current
  cat /sys/fs/cgroup/test_swap_2/memory.swap.current

  echo max > /sys/fs/cgroup/test_swap/memory.max
  echo 50M > /sys/fs/cgroup/test_swap/memory.swap.max

  sleep 10

  cat /sys/fs/cgroup/test_swap/memory.swap.current
  cat /sys/fs/cgroup/test_swap_2/memory.swap.current

  pkill allocate

Original test results:
  106024960
  106348544
  ./swap.sh: line 23: echo: write error: Device or resource busy
  106024960
  106348544

With this patch applied:
  106045440
  106352640
  52428800
  106201088
