If the capacity was initially larger than 10 and charges inside test
succeeded and then some event caused shrinking of the resource (without
synchronously preempting distributed units), then test.misc.current can
exceed the current capacity.
See the condition in misc_cg_current_show()
if (READ_ONCE(misc_res_capacity[i]) || usage)
What the shrinking and preemption means is up to the implementation of
the particular miscresource.
IOW sum of 1st level children's .current may overrun capacity,
semantics is not defined by the misc controller (but it'd reject new
charges in such a situation).
(That's just for completeness. I understood from the rest that you
rather want to disable capacity checking.)
HTH,
