As a way of printing plain text files, it seems fine.
My concern is that it means that cgroups no longer has any idea about
the typing of the data being returned, which will make it harder to
integrate with a binary stats API. You'd end up having to have a
separate reporting method for the same data to use it. That's why the
"read_map" function specifically doesn't take a seq_file, but instead
takes a key/value callback abstraction, which currently maps into a
seq_file. For the binary stats API, we can use the same reporting
functions, and just map into the binary API output.
Maybe we can somehow combine the read_map() abstraction with the
seq_file's start/stop/next operations.
