[PATCH 1/2][-mm][resend] res_counter limit change support ebusy

From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
Date: Mon Jul 14 2008 - 04:08:15 EST


Add an interface to set limit. This is necessary to memory resource controller
because it shrinks usage at set limit.

(*) Other controller may not need this interface to shrink usage because
shrinking is not necessary or impossible.

This is an enhancement.
named as res_counter-limit-change-ebusy.patch

Changelog:
- fixed white space bug.
