Subject[RFC][PATCH 8/8] RSS controller support reclamation


Reclaim memory as we hit the max_shares limit. The code for reclamation
is inspired from Dave Hansen's challenged memory controller and from the
shrink_all_memory() code

Reclamation can be triggered from two paths

1. While incrementing the RSS, we hit the limit of the container
2. A container is resized, such that it's new limit is below its current
RSS

In (1) reclamation takes place in the background.

TODO's

1. max_shares currently works like a soft limit. The RSS can grow beyond it's
limit. One possible fix is to introduce a soft limit (reclaim when the
container hits the soft limit) and fail when we hit the hard limit
