  Hello,

cgroup1 (by function memcg1_stat_format) contains two lines
	hierarchical_memory_limit %llu
	hierarchical_memsw_limit %llu

which are useful for userland to easily and performance-wise find out the
effective cgroup limits being applied. Otherwise userland has to
open+read+close the file "memory.max" and/or "memory.swap.max" in multiple
parent directories of a nested cgroup.

For cgroup1 it was implemented by:
	memcg: show real limit under hierarchy mode
	https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/fee7b548e6f2bd4bfd03a1a45d3afd593de7d5e9
	Date:   Wed Jan 7 18:08:26 2009 -0800

But for cgroup2 it has been missing so far. Based on Michal Koutny's idea this
patch now implements "memory.max.effective" and "memory.swap.max.effective"
files similar to existing "cpuset.cpus.effective".


Jan Kratochvil


v3:
memory.stat fields -> *.max.effective separate files suggested by Michal Koutny
v2:
hierarchical_memsw_limit -> hierarchical_swap_limit fix found by Waiman Long
v1:
hierarchical_memory_limit && hierarchical_memsw_limit in memory.stat

The code changes look good to me. However, your commit log isn't of the 
right format. We don't start the commit log with "Hello". See

https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst

You can also do a "git log" of a linux git tree and see how other people 
write their commit logs.

Cheers,
Longman
