Ying Han 071aee1384 memcg: support hierarchical memory.numa_stats
The memory.numa_stat file was not hierarchical.  Memory charged to the
children was not shown in parent's numa_stat.

This change adds the "hierarchical_" stats to the existing stats.  The
new hierarchical stats include the sum of all children's values in
addition to the value of the memcg.

Tested: Create cgroup a, a/b and run workload under b.  The values of
b are included in the "hierarchical_*" under a.

$ cd /sys/fs/cgroup
$ echo 1 > memory.use_hierarchy
$ mkdir a a/b

Run workload in a/b:
$ (echo $BASHPID >> a/b/cgroup.procs && cat /some/file && bash) &

The hierarchical_ fields in parent (a) show use of workload in a/b:
$ cat a/memory.numa_stat
total=0 N0=0 N1=0 N2=0 N3=0
file=0 N0=0 N1=0 N2=0 N3=0
