Subject: [PATCH v4 2/2] cgroup: implement subtree creation on copy_cgroup_ns()

Allow unprivileged processes to control subtrees of their associated
processes, a necessary feature if a rootless container wishes to take
advantage of cgroups for its own processes.

As cgroups are hierarchical, having the ability to set limits in a
subtree does not preclude the ability to modify the limits imposed by
parent cgroups. In addition, in the default hierarchy a process must
have write access to the common ancestor of the two (src and dest)
cgroups' cgroup.procs file. This makes this change safe against cgroup
escape.

There isn't a way to disable this at the moment.
