With kernel 3.18 (since commit 3e32cb2e0a12b6915056ff04601cf1bb9b44f967)
the "unlimited" value for cgroup memory limits has changed once again as
its byte value is now computed from a page counter.
The new "unlimited" value reported by the cgroup fs is therefore 2**51-1
pages which is (VIR_DOMAIN_MEMORY_PARAM_UNLIMITED - 3072). This results
e.g. in virsh memtune displaying 9007199254740988 instead of unlimited
for the limits.
This patch uses the value of memory.limit_in_bytes from the cgroup
memory root which is the system's "real" unlimited value for comparison.
See also libvirt commit 231656bbeb for the
history for kernel 3.12 and before.

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
