Would it make sense to do cgroup_rstat_init() only if there's a subsys
in ss_mask that makes use of rstat?
(On legacy systems there could be individual hierarchy for each
controller so the rstat space can be saved.)

And here do cgroup_rstat_init() only when parent has it.

Regardless of the suggestion above, this removal obsoletes the comment
cgroup_rstat_init:

         int cpu;
 
-        /* the root cgrp has rstat_cpu preallocated */
         if (!cgrp->rstat_cpu) {
                 cgrp->rstat_cpu = alloc_percpu(struct cgroup_rstat_cpu);
