Heh, that's tricky. I'm not quite sure where the unactivated files
are being added tho because that'd be where we should be activating.
I *think* that they are already activated as part of
cgroup_add_cftypes() but I am obviously qmissing something. I'll try
to repro the issue and find where we're skipping the activation call.
Thanks!
