The current statistics code is really small, so it fit into taskstats.c.
May be in the future, we could re-factor it and move it out.

I've registered containerstats_ops with the same family as taskstats to
reuse the taskstats interface.

As per comment above, since we register containerstats_ops with the taskstats
family, the commands need to be unique, hence we start where taskstats ended
(left off)

rcu_read_lock() should be fine. From Eric's patch at

2.6.17-mm2 - proc-remove-tasklist_lock-from-proc_pid_readdir.patch

The patch mentions that "We don't need the tasklist_lock to safely
iterate through processes anymore."

Yes, I should have done that, will do.
