[PATCH 10/11] memcg: allow a memcg with kmem charges to be destructed.

[Glauber Costa <glommer@parallels.com>]

Because the ultimate goal of the kmem tracking in memcg is to
track slab pages as well, we can't guarantee that we'll always
be able to point a page to a particular process, and migrate
the charges along with it - since in the common case, a page
will contain data belonging to multiple processes.

Because of that, when we destroy a memcg, we only make sure
the destruction will succeed by discounting the kmem charges
from the user charges when we try to empty the cgroup.
