Subject: [PATCH mm v3 6/9] memcg: enable accounting for percpu allocation of
 struct cgroup_rstat_cpu

struct cgroup_rstat_cpu is percpu allocated for each new cgroup and
can consume a significant portion of all allocated memory on nodes
with a large number of CPUs.

Common part of the cgroup creation:
Allocs  Alloc   $1*$2   Sum	Allocation
number  size
