Other than two remarks below, it looks good to me and it also looks

You can scope this mutex to the sysctl handler function

So basically any value will enable numa stats. This means that we would
never be able to extend this interface to e.g. auto mode (say value 2).
I guess you meant to check sysctl_vm_numa_stat == ENABLE_NUMA_STAT?
