[PATCH v8 5/6] selftests: cgroup: update per-memcg zswap writeback selftest

From: Nhat Pham
Date: Thu Nov 30 2023 - 14:40:45 EST


From: Domenico Cerasuolo <cerasuolodomenico@xxxxxxxxx>

The memcg-zswap self test is updated to adjust to the behavior change
implemented by commit 87730b165089 ("zswap: make shrinking memcg-aware"),
where zswap performs writeback for specific memcg.
