Of course, tmpfs v.s. swapoff test should be tested, too.

+ 9.8 OOM-Killer
+ Out-of-memory caused by memcg's limit will kill tasks under
+ the memcg. When hierarchy is used, a task under hierarchy
+ will be killed by the kernel.
+ In this case, panic_on_oom shouldn't be invoked and tasks
+ in other groups shouldn't be killed.
+
+ It's not difficult to cause OOM under memcg as following.
+ Case A) when you can swapoff
+ #swapoff -a
+ #echo 50M > /memory.limit_in_bytes
+ run 51M of malloc
+
+ Case B) when you use mem+swap limitation.
+ #echo 50M > memory.limit_in_bytes
+ #echo 50M > memory.memsw.limit_in_bytes
+ run 51M of malloc
