Thanks for doing this.

The main thing that bugged me about the macro is that the data lookup
was split into two places:

	DEFINE_MEMCG_THING(seq, memory_min_show, memory.min);

where memory.min is just a fragment of a designator and you have to
look at the macro to find out what exactly it gets turned into.

With this patch it's obvious, and you don't have to look at the
implementation of seq_puts_memcg_tunable() to understand what's being
printed out.
