The test_memcontrol selftest consistently fails its test_memcg_low sub-test due to the fact that its 3rd test child cgroup which have a memmory.low of 0 have low event count. This happens when memory_recursiveprot mount option is enabled which is the default setting used by systemd to mount cgroup2 filesystem. Modify the test_memcontrol.c to allow non-zero low event count in this particular case with memory_recursiveprot on. With this patch applied, the test_memcg_low sub-test finishes successfully without failure in most cases. Though both test_memcg_low and test_memcg_min sub-tests may still fail occasionally if the memory.current values fall outside of the expected ranges. The 4th test child cgroup has no memory usage and so has an effective low of 0. It has no low event count because the mem_cgroup_below_low() check in shrink_node_memcgs() is skipped as mem_cgroup_below_min() returns true. If we ever change mem_cgroup_below_min() in such a way that it no longer skips the no usage case, we will have to add code to explicitly skip it.
