Because VM is getting complex (one of reasons is memcg...), memcg's behavior
is complex. This is a document for memcg's internal behavior.

9.7 swapoff.
Besides management of swap is one of complicated parts of memcg,
call path of swap-in at swapoff is not same as usual swap-in path..
It's worth to be tested explicitly.

For example, test like following is good.
(Shell-A)
# mount -t cgroup none /cgroup -t memory
# mkdir /cgroup/test
# echo 40M > /cgroup/test/memory.limit_in_bytes
# echo 0 > /cgroup/test/tasks
Run malloc(100M) program under this. You'll see 60M of swaps.
(Shell-B)
# move all tasks in /cgroup/test to /cgroup
# /sbin/swapoff -a
# rmdir /test/cgroup
# kill malloc task.

Of course, tmpfs v.s. swapoff test should be tested, too.
