Only the RSS counter after reboot (same hw/software config) :

with your patch :
# mount -t container none /dev/container
# cat /dev/container/memctlr.stats
RSS Pages 10571

and with my shared pages accounting patch :
# mount -t container none /dev/container
# cat /dev/container/memctlr.stats
RSS Pages 7329
