mm: memcontrol: switch soft limit default back to infinity
Commit 3e32cb2e0a12 ("mm: memcontrol: lockless page counters") accidentally switched the soft limit default from infinity to zero, which turns all memcgs with even a single page into soft limit excessors and engages soft limit reclaim on all of them during global memory pressure. This makes global reclaim generally more aggressive, but also inverts the meaning of existing soft limit configurations where unset soft limits are usually more generous than set ones.
