Vasily Averin c948f51c16 memcg: enable accounting for net_device and Tx/Rx queues
Container netadmin can create a lot of fake net devices,
then create a new net namespace and repeat it again and again.
Net device can request the creation of up to 4096 tx and rx queues,
and force kernel to allocate up to several tens of megabytes memory
per net device.

It makes sense to account for them to restrict the host's memory
consumption from inside the memcg-limited container.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
