Fixed.

I have a slight preference to keeping these topology-aware tests on
the core / management part of code because that makes it obvious that
these stats aren't available for all cgroups.  Also, during cgroup
creation, because @cgrp isn't linked to its parent yet, we'd have to
pass @parent to cgroup_stat_init/exit() too.

Empty string when the stats are exposed through cpu.stat.

Sure, will switch to BUG_ON().

Thanks.
