[Devel] [PATCH hci-8.1 1/2] ms/selftests: cgroup: skip test_memcg_sock under cgroup.memory=nosocket

With cgroup.memory=nosocket the memory controller does not charge
socket memory, so the "sock " entry of memory.stat stays 0 and
memory.current moves only by the kernel objects accept() allocates.
tcp_client() then passes on 0 == 0 without having checked any
accounting, or fails if those objects took a fresh charge batch.

Look for nosocket among the cgroup.memory= options on the kernel command
line and skip the test there.

(cherry picked from commit 216a983640bce942e25c62e9d2f901dfba888cca)

Conflict: cgroup_util.h here still calls the buffer size PAGE_SIZE, the
rename to BUF_SIZE in 6e9f5c2eecd1 ("selftests/cgroup: rename PAGE_SIZE
to BUF_SIZE in cgroup_util") is not in the tree, so
memcg_sockets_disabled() sizes its buffer with PAGE_SIZE. The value is
the same.
