We could use snprintf() here too but it doesn't seem to matter either
way.  I guess we _should_ use snprintf as it causes less surprise.

It is regrettable that your mem_fmt() exists, especially within
memcontrol.c - it is quite a generic thing.  Can't we use
lib/string_helpers.c:string_get_size()?  Or if not, modify
string_get_size() so it is usable here?

Speaking of which,

Subject: lib/string_helpers.c: make arrays static

Moving these arrays into static storage shrinks the kernel a bit:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
