Personally I don't see how we can effectively solve the per-page
problem without also tracking all the owning memcgs for every
page. This means giving each struct page an array of memcgs

I suspect this will be too expensive to be realistically
implementable.

If it is done then we may not even need a pin controller on its own as
the main memcg should capture most of it. (althought it doesn't
distinguish between movable/swappable and non-swappable memory)

But this is all being done for the libvirt people, so it would be good
to involve them
