I don't know if there's much that can be trivially done about it but I
suspect these are a bit of a memory allocation time-bomb on a many-CPU
machine. The cgroup:seq_file mating (via read_map) treats everything
as /one/ record. This means that seq_printf is going to end up
eventually allocating a buffer that can fit _everything_ (as well as
every power-of-2 on the way there). Adding insult to injury is that
that the backing buffer is kmalloc() not vmalloc().
200+ bytes per-cpu above really is not unreasonable (46 bytes just for
the text, plus a byte per base 10 digit we end up reporting), but that
then leaves us looking at order-12/13 allocations just to print this
thing when there are O(many) cpus.
