Because this is the whole purpose of this series. Think that in a 
reasonable use case, each cgroup will be tied to a container system. 
Each of them wants to have its own statistics, in /proc/stat. The best 
way I thought of doing it was to piggyback into cpuacct, instead of 
coming up with a 124th accounting mechanism just for that.

I also used it do demonstrate how can we easily implement a new feature 
found in hypervisors out of it, but this is really just the cherry on top.
