It was found that when a cgroup2 filesystem was mounted, control files other than the base cgroup.* ones were not shown in the root directory. They were shown only after some controllers were activated in the root's cgroup.subtree_control file. This was caused by a lack of the kernfs_activate() call which was fixed by this patch.
