memory cgroup enhancements: force_empty interface for dropping all account in empty cgroup
This patch adds an interface "memory.force_empty". Any write to this file will drop all charges in this cgroup if there is no task under. %echo 1 > /....../memory.force_empty will drop all charges of memory cgroup if cgroup's tasks is empty. This is useful to invoke rmdir() against memory cgroup successfully. Tested and worked well on x86_64/fake-NUMA system.
