The deprecation process of kmem.limit_in_bytes started with the commit
0158115f ("memcg, kmem: deprecate kmem.limit_in_bytes") which also
explains in detail the motivation behind the deprecation.  To summarize,
it is the unexpected behavior on hitting the kmem limit.  This patch
moves the deprecation process to the next stage by disallowing to set
the kmem limit.  In future we might just remove the kmem.limit_in_bytes
file completely.
