Where N is __MCT_NR_ITEMS for all the counter array lengths? That
doesn't look like it works if MCT_HUGETLB_MAX is small... i.e. there
is both CONFIG_MEMCG and CONFIG_CGROUP_HUGETLB and (__MCT_HUGETLB_MAX
= 1 or 3) since MCT_HUGETLB_MAX would be < MCT_TCPMEM and then
__MCT_NR_ITEMS would be wrong?

If so, what about:

enum mem_counter_type {
#ifdef CONFIG_MEMCG
    MCT_MEMORY, /* cgroup v1 and v2 */
    MCT_SWAP, /* cgroup v2 only */
    MCT_MEMSW = MCT_SWAP, /* cgroup v1 only */
    MCT_KMEM, /* cgroup v1 only */
    MCT_TCPMEM, /* cgroup v1 only */
#endif
    MCT_MEMCG_NR_ITEMS,
#ifdef CONFIG_CGROUP_HUGETLB
    MCT_HUGETLB_MAX = MCT_MEMCG_NR_ITEMS + __MCT_HUGETLB_MAX,
#else
    MCT_HUGETLB_MAX = 0,
#endif
    __MCT_NR_ITEMS = MAX(MCT_MEMCG_NR_ITEMS, MCT_HUGETLB_MAX)
};
