We have two types of memcgs: online groups(important business)
and offline groups(unimportant business). Online groups are
all configured with MAX low protection, while offline groups
are not at all protected(with default 0 low).
When offline groups are overcommitted, the global memory pressure
suffers. This will cause the memory allocations from online groups
constantly go to the slow global direct reclaim in order to reclaim
online's page caches, as kswap is not able to reclaim low-protection
memory. low is not hard limit, it's reasonable to be reclaimed by
kswapd if there's no other reclaimable memory.

Please be more descriptive about the problem you are trying to handle
here. I haven't actually read the patch but let me emphasise that the
low limit protection is important isolation tool. And allowing kswapd to
reclaim protected memcgs is going to break the semantic as it has been
