[PATCH 08/12] cgroups: Pull up res counter charge failure interpretation to caller

[Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>]

res_counter_charge() always returns -ENOMEM when the limit is reached
and the charge thus can't happen.

However it's up to the caller to interpret this failure and return
the appropriate error value. The task counter subsystem will need
to report the user that a fork() has been cancelled because of some
limit reached, not because we are too short on memory.

Fix this by returning -1 when res_counter_charge() fails.
