It's not that easy. mem_cgroup doesn't have a fixed size. It depends
on the number of online nodes. I haven't looked closer to this yet but
cgroup has an early init code path maybe we can hook in there.

I would like to settle with the current issues described in other email
first, though. This is just a cosmetic issue.
