Check mm-owner cgroup membership hierarchically.
I think this one cat just beat up this other cat in front of my
window, yelling something about money and missing product.  Anyway, I
already forgot why we want this patch.  Could you describe that in the
changelog, please?

Please don't duplicate mem_cgroup_same_or_subtree()'s functionality in
a worse way.  The hierarchy information is kept in a stack such that
ancestry can be detected in linear time, check out css_is_ancestor().

If you don't want to nest rcu_read_lock(), you could push the
rcu_read_lock() from css_is_ancestor() into its sole user and provide
a __mem_cgroup_is_ancestor() that assumes rcu already read-locked.

No?
