Ah right, cgroup v1. Does it not work with mount flag guarding?
What's the behavior of cgroup v1 when it comes to memory
recursive protection for e.g (which this mount flag is based on)?

If it doesn't work, we'll have to add a separate knob for v1 -
no biggies.

Other than this concern, I don't have anything against cgroup v1
having this feature per se - everything should still work. But let
I know if it can break cgroupv1 accounting otherwise :)
