This is a first patch in the row and it just adds isolated boolean to the
mem_cgroup structure. The value says whether pages charged for this group
should be isolated from the rest of the system when they are charged (they are
not by default).
The patch adds a cgroup fs interface to modify the current isolation status
of a group. The value can be modified by /dev/memctl/memory.isolated knob.
