[PATCH 3/4] cgroup: Disallow mounting v1 hierarchies without controller implementation

From: Michal Koutný
Date: Mon Sep 09 2024 - 12:33:00 EST


The configs that disable some v1 controllers would still allow mounting
them but with no controller-specific files. (Making such hierarchies
equivalent to named v1 hierarchies.) To achieve behavior consistent with
actual out-compilation of a whole controller, the mounts should treat
respective controllers as non-existent.

Wrap implementation into a helper function, leverage legacy_files to
detect compiled out controllers. The effect is that mounts on v1 would
fail and produce a message like:
[ 1543.999081] cgroup: Unknown subsys name 'memory'
