No. The mem_counter_N_limit is the limit for all the memory, that the
Nth group consumes. This includes the RSS, page cache and swap for this
group and all the child groups. Since RSS and page cache are accounted
together, this limit tracks the sum of (memory + swap) values over the
subtree started at the given group.
