Commit b82bab66 introduced the use of memory cgroups for keeping track
of forked PIDs; it basically creates a separate memory cgroup for every
process forked from zygote.

Each such memory cgroup which also have its own LRU with (in)active file
and anonymous pages. The current theory is this could potentially introduce
two problems:
1) kswapd runs longer because it has to iterate over the LRUs of all mem
cgroups, instead of over the LRUs of a single root mem cgroup;
2) the way kswapd reclaims things will be different also - I think it will
tend to bias reclaim to smaller mem cgroups, and process private pages
will end up on ZRAM swap much sooner.

Until we figure this out, fall back to the CPU accounting cgroup for keeping
track of forked PIDs. This leaves us with a single root mem cgroup again. We
can also keep userspace lmkd enabled because it only requires the root mem
cgroup.

libprocessgroup checks whether it can use memory
cgroups for keeping track of forked processes by
seeing whether /dev/memcg/apps is writable. However,
on systems with memory cgroups disabled, SELinux
(correctly) no longer classifies this directory as a cgroup,
and starts denying zygote access. To fix this,
first check whether /dev/memcg/apps/tasks exists to
see if the cgroup is mounted; only then check whether
we can write to the directory.

It turns out we were using the CPU accounting
cgroups for keeping track of processes that were
forked by an app without the framework's knowledge,
so we could kill all of them reliably (see b/15313911
for context).

Since we want to use memory cgroups for other purposes,
we might as well use memory cgroups for tracking forked
PIDs if they're enabled. This also gets us automatic cleanup
of empty mem cgroups.

Also, removed old mem cgroup mount point that is no
longer used, as well as cgroup release agent code that
we're not using.

to make the function faster on average. Since killing a process
takes about 40-60ms on a recent device, the previous logic tends
to sleep too long. This CL does not significantly change the total
timeout (old code: 204ms, new code: 200ms).

Currently, mkdirAndChown takes parameters for mode, uid and gid, but
ignores them and hardcodes 0750, AID_SYSTEM, AID_SYSTEM instead.
This doesn't matter much because so far its only invocation passes
exactly those values as parameters -- but clang complains about unused
parameters.

Might as well make the function do what it claims to do.

It looks like there were a couple problems in the code:

- It would not 0-terminate the string it read, to make sure we didn't
see garbage at the end.
- It didn't reduce buf_len as it processes data in the buffer, so if
we need to read more we will increase the buffer length to be longer
than the actual available data.

Also put in some logs about every thing we kill, so we can see what
is going on when debugging. And add a special check for us trying
to kill pid 0 for any reason, since doing so seem to be terminal to
the caller.

removeAllProcessGroups and removeUidProcessGroups were calling
opendir, but never called closedir. This would leave a leaked
file descriptor for every /acct/uid_* directory that existed
at boot.

libprocessgroup will allow Zygote to place processes
in a cgroup, and then kill the process and all forked processes
later. lmkd will also kill all forked processes.
