Hello, Matt.

Would it be possible to make the core of this a built-in part of
cgroup like cgroup-bpf does?  My gut feeling is that that isn't gonna
be much code anyway and likely to be cleaner to implement and use.

Being a full-fledged controller comes with quite a bit of complexity
in terms of sync rules and everything, and we may build a simpler
modular infrastructure if usages like this proliferate but for now
extending from the core seems the most straight forward.

Thanks.
