Even without any controllers, there can still be named hierarchies (v1)
or the default hierarchy (v2) (for instance) for process tracking
purposes. So only parts of kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c could be ifdef'd.

Beware that CGROUP_SUBSYS_COUNT is not known at preprocessing stage (you
could have a macro alternative though).

Such a guarantee would be nicer, I agree. I tried a bit but anandoned it
when I saw macros proliferate (which I found less readable than your
current variant). But YMMV.
