This patch introduces the kernel memory cgroup. Its purpose
is to track and control/limit allocation of kernel objects.
Kernel objects are very different in nature than user memory,
because they can't be swapped out, so can't be overcommited.
The first incarnation is very simple. The current patch doesn't
add any objects to be tracked, but rather, just the cgroup
structure.
