Please disregard.

Just like we can't mark the root cgroup threaded, we can't mark
delegated subtree root's threaded, so cgroup.type is not delegatable.

However, the delegated root's children can definitely be marked
threadaed and they will join the delegated root's domain and the
threads are free to move between root and the threaded subtree.

Thanks.
