For memcg oom reserves, we'll need a resource counter interface that will
not fail when exceeding the memcg limit like res_counter_charge_nofail,
but only to a ceiling.
This patch adds res_counter_charge_nofail_max() that will exceed the
resource counter but only to a maximum defined value. If it fails to
charge the resource, it returns -ENOMEM.
