When reaching shrink_slab, we should descent in children memcg searching
for objects that could be shrunk. This is true even if the memcg does
not have kmem limits on, since the kmem res_counter will also be billed
against the user res_counter of the parent.
It is possible that we will free objects and not free any pages, that
will just harm the child groups without helping the parent group at all.
But at this point, we basically are prepared to pay the price.
