net: tcp_memcontrol: remove bogus hierarchy pressure propagation
When a cgroup currently breaches its socket memory limit, it enters memory pressure mode for itself and its *ancestors*. This throttles transmission in unrelated sibling and cousin subtrees that have nothing to do with the breached limit. On the contrary, breaching a limit should make that group and its *children* enter memory pressure mode. But this happens already, albeit lazily: if an ancestor limit is breached, siblings will enter memory pressure on their own once the next packet arrives for them. So no additional hierarchy code is needed. Remove the bogus stuff. Signed-off-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by: David S.
