Re: Single process controlling all cgroups sounds like looking in right direction but wrong solution.

Odd, my version has

L:      containers-cunTk1MwBs9QetFLy7KEm3xJsTq8ys+cHZ5vskTnxNA@public.gmane.org
L:      cgroups-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org

The cgroups entry was added in November 2011 according to git-blame.
I don't know why the kernel.org version is so old.

Still I think that should be patched to remove containers@.  I
originally objected to the cgroup@ list creation, but since I
do not believe the relevant cgroup folks read the containers@
list any more, I don't think containers@ should be listed -
certainly not first.

That sounds unnecessarily defensive - I wasn't complaining, just trying
to help your email get to where it would be best discussed  :)  Sorry
that it involves an extra step (resending), but I didn't want to simply
reply cc:ing cgroups@, as the email thread tends to get funky that way.
