IMHO, if we disable accounting file stats in root cgroup, it would be better
not to show them in memory.stat to avoid confusing users.
But, hmm, I think accounting them in root cgroup isn't so meaningless.
Isn't making mem_cgroup_has_dirty_limit() return false in case of root cgroup enough?

Looks good overall.
