[PATCH 30/33] memory controller add switch to control what type of pages to limit v7

[Paul Menage <menage@google.com>]

From: Balbir Singh <balbir@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
(container->cgroup renaming by Paul Menage <menage@google.com>)

Choose if we want cached pages to be accounted or not.  By default both are
accounted for.  A new set of tunables are added.

echo -n 1 > mem_control_type

switches the accounting to account for only mapped pages

echo -n 3 > mem_control_type

switches the behaviour back
