One is for checking how memory cgroup works.
When memory reaches limit and amount of CACHE doesn't change but
CACHE.failure increases, maybe CACHE is rotating.

One is for debug, I'd like to check swapiness <-> RSS.failure:CACHE.failure
releationship. It's ok to turn these params to be DEBUG option.

File-backed VMA gets RSS.failure.
