495 Add swap management feature to memory resource controller. When you
496 enable this, you can limit mem+swap usage per cgroup. In other words,
497 when you disable this, memory resource controller has no cares to
498 usage of swap...a process can exhaust all of the swap. This extension
499 is useful when you want to avoid exhaustion swap but this itself
500 adds more overheads and consumes memory for remembering information.
501 Especially if you use 32bit system or small memory system, please
502 be careful about enabling this. When memory resource controller
503 is disabled by boot option, this will be automatically disabled and
504 there will be no overhead from this. Even when you set this config=y,
505 if boot option "noswapaccount" is set, swap will not be accounted.
