When running LTP's cpuset_memory_pressure program, an error can be
reproduced by the following steps:

(1) Create a cgroup, enable cpuset subsystem, set memory limit, and
then set cpuset_memory_pressure to 1
(2) In this cgroup, create a process to allocate a large amount of
memory and generate pressure counts
(3) Set cpuset_memory_pressure to 0
(4) Check cpuset.memory_pressure: LTP thinks it should be 0, but the
kernel returns a value of 1, so LTP determines it as FAIL

In the current kernel, the variable cpuset_memory_pressure_enabled is
not actually used。

That statement is not true. cpuset_memory_pressure_enabled is used to determine if __cpuset_memory_pressure_bump() should be called in cpuset_memory_pressure_bump().


This patch modifies fmeter_getrate() to determine whether to return 0
based on cpuset_memory_pressure_enabled.

What Michal suggested is the approach you used in v2, but it has problem as I mentioned previously.

Other than that,
