So everything will be under single hierarchy? How will we control that
what controllers are active on what cgroups? Or all controllers are going
to be active on all cgroups on that hierarchy. 

That would be bad for IO cgroups where a better way to use it to isolate
the trouble making workload and run rest in root or a common cgroup.
