Yeah, that's exactly what I'm talking about by adding cgroup or similar.

Well I'm not talking about GPU memory in particular here. This is mandatory for any memory or saying more general any resource. E.g. you are not allowed to pin large amount of system memory on a default installation for exactly those reasons as well. That you can have a knob to disable this behavior for your HPC system is perfectly fine, but I thing what Dave notes here as well that this is most likely not the default behavior we want.
