Oh, I'm probably mixing up two things.

1. When delegating, cgroup.threads should be delegated.  Doing that
   selectively doesn't achieve anything meaningful.

2. I haven't thought much about delegating a sub-protion of a threaded
   subtree.  Everything works the same way.  I just can't think of a
   use case.

Thanks.
