It seems odd to me to not show dead ones after a cgroup has disabled
the controller again. They still consume memory, after all, and so
continue to be property of that cgroup afterwards.
Instead of doing for_each_css(), would it make more sense to have
struct cgroup {
...
int nr_dying_subsys[CGROUP_SUBSYS_COUNT];
...
}
and just always print them all, regardless of what is, or was,
enabled?
