Sounds reasonable.

Anyway, I think this patchset should be simply dropped in favor of the
Balbir's memrlimit controller, as reported by Kamezawa.

The memrlimit controller permits to implement the overcommit policies in
userspace directly setting the cgroup VM limits (well.. I've not read the
memrlimit source yet, but from the documentation it seems so).
