+ SLUB creates a directory under /sys/kernel/slab for each
+ allocation cache to host info and debug files. If memory
+ cgroup is enabled, each cache can have per memory cgroup
+ caches. SLUB can create the same sysfs directories for these
+ caches under /sys/kernel/slab/CACHE/cgroup but it can lead
+ to a very high number of debug files being created. This is
+ controlled by slub_memcg_sysfs boot parameter and this
