User can call select/poll system calls with a large number of assigned file descriptors and force kernel to allocate up to several pages of memory till end of these sleeping system calls. We have here long-living unaccounted per-task allocations. It makes sense to account for these allocations to restrict the host's memory consumption from inside the memcg-limited container.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
