Both nr_descendants and max_descendant_depth can be found easily from userspace by scanning the cgroup directory. nr_dying_descendants is a transient figure and it should be 0 most of the time. So I wonder how useful it can be. This new interface file will be more useful if it can reveal information that cannot be easily obtained by looking from userspace alone.
