The kernel allocates ~400 bytes of 'strcut mount' for any new mount.
Creating a new mount namespace clones most of the parent mounts,
and this can be repeated many times. Additionally, each mount allocates
up to PATH_MAX=4096 bytes for mnt->mnt_devname.

It makes sense to account for these allocations to restrict the host's
memory consumption from inside the memcg-limited container.
