Implementation details aside, the idea is to have something like FUSE to
hook the read(), and then construct the information it needs to present
in the proper format.

Alternatively, for files that doesn't change a lot, you can create a
file /container-storage-area/my_copy_of_meminfo at container creation,
and bind mount *that* file.

There is no reason to bind mount a kernel-provided file directly.
