You should see this works fine on Tumbleweed where pure V2 is the
default.

Yes that is the kernel command line option which you can add through
GRUB (unless I am mistaken).

Or it can be specified in the systemd configuration somewhere.

LTP does not try to remount CGroups if a controller is not on the
required version. If you need to test the unified hierarchy or a V2
controller then the simplest thing to do is configure systemd to only
use V2 (unified).

The exception is if the needed controller is not mounted already, then
LTP will mount it. This is the case if you, for e.g., use Rapido or some
buildroot config with CGroups in the kernel, but not userland.
