[PATCH 2/2] memcg: disable hierarchy support if bound to the legacy cgroup hierarchy

From: Vladimir Davydov
Date: Thu Feb 19 2015 - 09:35:43 EST


If the memory cgroup controller is initially mounted in the scope of the
default cgroup hierarchy and then remounted to a legacy hierarchy, it
will still have hierarchy support enabled, which is incorrect. We should
disable hierarchy support if bound to the legacy cgroup hierarchy.
