Subject: [PATCH] mm, memcg: don't protect pages if memcg is not populated
Date: Sat, 23 Nov 2019 00:56:42 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1574488602-11773-1-git-send-email-laoar.shao@gmail.com> (raw)

memory.{min, low} keeps protecting pages in a memcg even if there're no
process running in this memcg. That makes nonsense, because if there're
no processes running in this memcg there may be something wrong happens
and these protected pages are not useful now.
