Currently, we use memcg->memory only for charging memory pages. Besides,
every page charged to this counter (including kmem) has ->mem_cgroup
field set appropriately. This looks consistent and nice. As an extra
benefit, we can track all pages charged to a memory cgroup via
/proc/kapgecgroup.

Now, you charge "window size" to it, which AFAIU isn't necessarily equal
to the amount of memory actually consumed by the cgroup for socket
buffers. I think this looks ugly and inconsistent with the existing
behavior. I agree that we need to charge socker buffers to ->memory, but
IMO we should do that per each skb page, using memcg_kmem_charge_kmem
somewhere in alloc_skb_with_frags invoking the reclaimer just as we do
for kmalloc, while tcp window size control should stay aside.

Thanks,
Vladimir
