Yeah, that's still great to have as generalized infrastructure.
For memory.events, how about this instead?

Subject: [PATCH] mm: memcg: make sure memory.events is uptodate when waking
pollers
a983b5ebee57 ("mm: memcontrol: fix excessive complexity in memory.stat
reporting") added per-cpu drift to all memory cgroup stats and events
shown in memory.stat and memory.events.
For memory.stat this is acceptable. But memory.events issues file
notifications, and somebody polling the file for changes will be
confused when the counters in it are unchanged after a wakeup.
Luckily, the events in memory.events - MEMCG_LOW, MEMCG_HIGH,
MEMCG_MAX, MEMCG_OOM - are sufficiently rare and high-level that we
don't need per-cpu buffering for them: MEMCG_HIGH and MEMCG_MAX would
be the most frequent, but they're counting invocations of reclaim,
which is a complex operation that touches many shared cachelines.
This splits memory.events from the generic VM events and tracks them
in their own, unbuffered atomic counters. That's also cleaner, as it
eliminates the ugly enum nesting of VM and cgroup events.
Fixes: a983b5ebee57 ("mm: memcontrol: fix excessive complexity in memory.stat reporting")
