From: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@xxxxxxxxx>
Provide an API to inherit a counter value from a parent. This can be
useful to implement cgroup.clone_children on a resource counter.
Still the resources of the children are limited by those of the parent, so
this is only to provide a default setting behaviour when clone_children is
set.
