This prior fix to set "-1" explicitly was lost, and it is simpler to use
the same pointer type from the OCI spec to handle nil pointer == -1 ==
unset case.
Also, as a nearly humorous aside, there was a test for MemorySwappiness
that was actually setting Memory, and it was passing because of this
bug (as it was always setting everyone's MemorySwappiness to zero!)

Modify the memory cgroup code such that kmem is not managed by Set(), in
order to allow updating of memory constraints for containers by Docker.
This also removes the need to make memory a special case cgroup.

Apply and Set are two separate operations, and it doesn't make sense to
group the two together (especially considering that the bootstrap
process is added to the cgroup as well). The only exception to this is
the memory cgroup, which requires the configuration to be set before
processes can join.
One of the weird cases to deal with is systemd. Systemd sets some of the
cgroup configuration options, but not all of them. Because memory is a
special case, we need to explicitly set memory in the systemd Apply().
Otherwise, the rest can be safely re-applied in .Set() as usual.

This allows us to distinguish cases where a container
needs to just join the paths or also additionally
set cgroups settings. This will help in implementing
cgroupsPath support in the spec.

The former cgroup entry is confusing, separate it to parent
and name.
Rename entry `c` to `config`.

'parent' function is confusing with parent cgroup, it's actually
parent path, so rename it to parentPath.
The name 'data' is too common to be identified, rename it to cgroupData
which is exactly what it is.

We have a rule that for optional cgroups, don't fail if some
of them are not mounted, but we want it fail hard when a
user specifies an option and we are unable to fulfill the
request.
Memory cgroup should also follow this rule.

TL;DR: check for IsExist(err) after a failed MkdirAll() is both
redundant and wrong -- so two reasons to remove it.
Quoting MkdirAll documentation:
> MkdirAll creates a directory named path, along with any necessary
> parents, and returns nil, or else returns an error. If path
> is already a directory, MkdirAll does nothing and returns nil.
This means two things:
1. If a directory to be created already exists, no error is
returned.
2. If the error returned is IsExist (EEXIST), it means there exists
a non-directory with the same name as MkdirAll need to use for
directory. Example: we want to MkdirAll("a/b"), but file "a"
(or "a/b") already exists, so MkdirAll fails.
The above is a theory, based on quoted documentation and my UNIX
knowledge.
3. In practice, though, current MkdirAll implementation [1] returns
ENOTDIR in most of cases described in #2, with the exception when
there is a race between MkdirAll and someone else creating the
last component of MkdirAll argument as a file. In this very case
MkdirAll() will indeed return EEXIST.
Because of #1, IsExist check after MkdirAll is not needed.
Because of #2 and #3, ignoring IsExist error is just plain wrong,
as directory we require is not created. It's cleaner to report
the error now.
Note this error is all over the tree, I guess due to copy-paste,
or trying to follow the same usage pattern as for Mkdir(),
or some not quite correct examples on the Internet.

In some older kernels setting swappiness fails. This happens even
when nobody tries to configure swappiness from docker UI because
we would still get some default value from host config.
With this we treat -1 value as default value (set implicitly) and skip
the enforcement of swappiness.
However from the docker UI setting an invalid value anything other than
0-100 including -1 should fail. This patch enables that fix in docker UI.
without this fix container creation with invalid value succeeds with a
default value (60) which in incorrect.
