Given the fact that for_each_css() iteration is filtering out csses that
are absent, the dying counts follow the same logic of skipping it if
there is no dying css. That also makes it easier to identify cgroups
with dying descendant csses as we don't need filter out entries with a 0
dying count. It also makes the output less verbose and let user focus
more on what are significant.
I do understand that it makes it inconsistent with the ways
nr_descendants and nr_dying_descendants are being handled as entries
with 0 count are also displayed. I can update the patch to display those
entries with 0 dying subsys count if other people also think that is the
better way forward.
