Just because controllers are mounted doesn't mean they're populated. To
check that, you want to look for directories under the mount points
with a non-empty 'tasks'.  You will find some, but memory cgroup
assignments would likely be most interesting for this thread.  You can
eliminate any diddling there by booting with cgroup_disable=memory.
