Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] kselftest/cgroup: fix unexpected testing failure on test_core

The cgroup testing relys on the root cgroup's subtree_control setting,
If the 'memory' controller isn't set, some test cases will be failed
as following:

$sudo  ./test_core
not ok 1 test_cgcore_internal_process_constraint
ok 2 test_cgcore_top_down_constraint_enable
not ok 3 test_cgcore_top_down_constraint_disable
...

To correct this unexpected failure, this patch write the 'memory' to
subtree_control of root to get a right result.
