From: Glauber Costa <glom...@openvz.org>

When we delete kmem-enabled memcgs, they can still be zombieing
around for a while. The reason is that the objects may still be alive,
and we won't be able to delete them at destruction time.

The only entry point for that, though, are the shrinkers. The
shrinker interface, however, is not exactly tailored to our needs. It
could be a little bit better by using the API Dave Chinner proposed, but
it is still not ideal since we aren't really a count-and-scan event, but
more a one-off flush-all-you-can event that would have to abuse that
somehow.
