While I understand that your usecase might require priorities I do not
think this part missing is a reason to nack the cgroup based selection
and kill-all parts. This can be done on top. The only important part
right now is the current selection semantic - only leaf memcgs vs. size
of the hierarchy). I strongly believe that comparing only leaf memcgs
is more straightforward and it doesn't lead to unexpected results as
mentioned before (kill a small memcg which is a part of the larger
sub-hierarchy).

I didn't get to read the new version of this series yet and hope to get
to it soon.
