This is somehow not exactly the same with your description "if 'current'

You don't want to show the local swap usage and limit (below code) if
mem.hard_limit_in_bytes is larger than the physical memory capacity?
Why?

here, do you need also to check memcg->memsw_is_minimum? Local
swapping is disabled if memsw_is_minium is true.

This is seriously broken, memsw.limit_in_bytes means the max swap
space you can get, and under global memory pressure all physical
memory belongs to a memcg might get dump into disk, until it reaches
the limit set by memsw.limit_in_bytes. So you should not subtract the
physical memory usage.

And you need a 'else' statement here, although memsw.limit_in_bytes
might be larger than val->totalswap, it's still wrong to show the user
a global swap usage other than your local one, right?

We have a highly similar patch with yours here on a large production
system, AFAICS it's absolutely unaccepted to require correcting the
userland tools to read the stat file exported by the various cgroups,
which have different formats and locations and names with the legacy
ones i.e. /proc/stat, /proc/meminfo and /proc/loadavg. There are tons
of the tools and it's impossible to do so (just think about,
top/sar/vmstat/mpstat/free/who, and various userland library read the
number directly from above files, setup their thread pool or memory
pool according to the available resource).
