mem_cgroup_css_reset() is called when the memory controller is disabled on a cgroup but the memcg cannot be destroyed because it is pinned by a subsystem dependency -- for example, the io controller declares .depends_on = 1 << memory_cgrp_id, so memory remains in the cgroup_ss_mask and the css is hidden rather than killed. The purpose of css_reset is to revert the memcg to its vanilla state so that no policies are applied and the css can be safely made visible again later. Currently, all page counters (memory.max, swap.max, kmem.max, tcpmem.max) and other limits (soft_limit, memory.high, swap.high) are reset to their defaults, but zswap_max and zswap_writeback are not. These fields are initialized in css_alloc (zswap_max = PAGE_COUNTER_MAX, zswap_writeback inherited from parent) but were missing from css_reset. As a result, stale zswap policies remain in effect after css_reset: the zswap charge path (obj_cgroup_may_zswap) continues to enforce the old zswap_max limit, and the writeback path continues to honor the old zswap_writeback setting, even though the memory controller has been "disabled" on this cgroup. Reset zswap_max to PAGE_COUNTER_MAX and zswap_writeback to true, matching their defaults in css_alloc.
