+ * This function calculates an individual page counter's effective
+ * protection which is derived from its own memory.min/low, its
+ * parent's and siblings' settings, as well as the actual memory
+ * distribution in the tree.
+ *
+ * The following rules apply to the effective protection values:
+ *
+ * 1. At the first level of reclaim, effective protection is equal to
+ * the declared protection in memory.min and memory.low.
+ *
+ * 2. To enable safe delegation of the protection configuration, at
+ * subsequent levels the effective protection is capped to the
+ * parent's effective protection.
+ *
+ * 3. To make complex and dynamic subtrees easier to configure, the
+ * user is allowed to overcommit the declared protection at a given
+ * level. If that is the case, the parent's effective protection is
+ * distributed to the children in proportion to how much protection
+ * they have declared and how much of it they are utilizing.
+ *
+ * This makes distribution proportional, but also work-conserving:
+ * if one counter claims much more protection than it uses memory,
+ * the unused remainder is available to its siblings.
+ *
+ * 4. Conversely, when the declared protection is undercommitted at a
+ * given level, the distribution of the larger parental protection
+ * budget is NOT proportional. A counter's protection from a sibling
+ * is capped to its own memory.min/low setting.
+ *
+ * 5. However, to allow protecting recursive subtrees from each other
+ * without having to declare each individual counter's fixed share
+ * of the ancestor's claim to protection, any unutilized -
+ * "floating" - protection from up the tree is distributed in
+ * proportion to each counter's *usage*. This makes the protection
+ * neutral wrt sibling cgroups and lets them compete freely over
+ * the shared parental protection budget, but it protects the
+ * subtree as a whole from neighboring subtrees.
+ *
+ * Note that 4. and 5. are not in conflict: 4. is about protecting
+ * against immediate siblings whereas 5. is about protecting against
+ * neighboring subtrees.
