In fact I missed one hunk. Here's a better patch with some commnents.

Subject: [PATCH] Don't fail lxc domain start when memory controller support is missing

Debian stock kernel has CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR disabled due to the
overhead [1]. Allow to start containers if the corresponding files in
the cgroup filesystem are missing. This fixes Debian bug #566180 [2].
