Thinking about it some more. There is a place for invalid domain. It is
not the child of a threaded cgroup. It is the siblings of a threaded
cgroup whose parent is not root.

       Root - A (domain) - B (domain)
                         \ C (domain)

With "echo threaded > B/cgroup.type":

       Root - A (threaded domain) - B (threaded)
                                  \ C (domain, invalid)

Any children of a threaded cgroup should be threaded.

Cheers,
Longman
