mm/memcontrol: respect zswap.writeback setting from parent cg too

Currently, the behavior of zswap.writeback wrt.  the cgroup hierarchy
seems a bit odd.  Unlike zswap.max, it doesn't honor the value from parent
cgroups.  This surfaced when people tried to globally disable zswap
writeback, i.e.  reserve physical swap space only for hibernation [1] -
disabling zswap.writeback only for the root cgroup results in subcgroups
with zswap.writeback=1 still performing writeback.

The inconsistency became more noticeable after I introduced the
MemoryZSwapWriteback= systemd unit setting [2] for controlling the knob.
The patch assumed that the kernel would enforce the value of parent
cgroups.  It could probably be workarounded from systemd's side, by going
up the slice unit tree and inheriting the value.  Yet I think it's more
sensible to make it behave consistently with zswap.max and friends.
