Sure. Will change that.

Sorry about that. Will do.

Do you mean _not_ see? Yosry and I experimented a bit. We found even
on systems where v2 is not enabled, cgroup v2 root always exists and
can be attached to, and can be iterated on (only trivially). We didn't
find a way to tell v1 and v2 apart and deemed a comment to instruct v1
users is fine?

Oh, I missed seeing this scenario. Then we need a flag in
cgroup_iter_priv indicating whether iter is happening. Only when
during iter hasn't ended, we return -EOPNOTSUPP.
