Creating cgroup hierearchies of unreasonable size can affect overall system performance. A user might want to limit the size of cgroup hierarchy. This is especially important if a user is delegating some cgroup sub-tree. To address this issue, introduce an ability to control the size of cgroup hierarchy. The cgroup.max.descendants control file allows to set the maximum allowed number of descendant cgroups. The cgroup.max.depth file controls the maximum depth of the cgroup tree. Both are single value r/w files, with "max" default value. The control files exist on each hierarchy level (including root). When a new cgroup is created, we check the total descendants and depth limits on each level, and if none of them are exceeded, a new cgroup is created. Only alive cgroups are counted, removed (dying) cgroups are ignored.
