the point is to create a thread when setting RES_HWMARK.
mem_cgroup_write is merely an example.  it can be when inheriting
watermarks from the parent cgroup, etc.
anyway, the assumption we need here is that the default value of
the top level cgroup's high watermark is infinite.  i think it's
a quite reasonable assumption.
