When a cgroup currently breaches its socket memory limit, it enters
memory pressure mode for itself and its *parents*. This throttles
transmission in unrelated groups that have nothing to do with the
breached limit.

On the contrary, breaching a limit should make that group and its
*children* enter memory pressure mode. But this happens already,
albeit lazily: if a parent limit is breached, siblings will enter
memory pressure on their own once the next packet arrives for them.

So no additional hierarchy code is needed. Remove the bogus stuff.
