kernfs_activate() there is for any files which are created while a
controller moves between hierarchies, so, yeah, during boot, this is
where the root files for cgroup1 hierarchies would be activated.

Yeah, they just get skipped over.

When a controller gets mounted on v1, the controller is detached from
cgroup2 hierarchy, so the corresponding files are removed from v2 root
and then created on v1, which are activated by the kernfs_activate()
call at the end of rebind.

I see.  I'm testing with the same kernel.

Heh, I'm really confused.  If I do the same thing, I get the following
result which makes sense as the files would be activated in
cgroup_apply_cftypes() when the debug controller is registered during
boot.

 # mkdir /cgroup2
 # mount -t cgroup2 cgroup2 /cgroup2
 # ls /cgroup2/
 cgroup.controllers      debug.current_css_set
 cgroup.procs            debug.current_css_set_cg_links
 cgroup.subtree_control  debug.current_css_set_refcount
 cgroup.threads          debug.masks
 debug.csses             debug.taskcount
 debug.css_links

Thanks.
