I suggested the seperate controller in the review of the patchset so I
obviously agree with your conclusion. I don't think we should account for
hugetlb pages in memory.usage_in_bytes and enforce memory.limit_in_bytes
since 512 4K pages is not the same as 1 2M page which may be a sacred
resource if fragmentation is high.
Many thanks to Aneesh for continuing to update the patchset and working
toward a resolution on this, I love the direction its taking.
