For the CPU controller I was working on, (a fast access to) such a list would

(p->load_weight) which is made to depend upon its class limit. Whenever
the class limit changes, we need to go and change all its member task's
->load_weight value.

If you don't maintain the per-container task list, I guess I could still
work around it, by either:

        - Walk the task table and find relevant members

That doesn't seem like a terrible solution to me, unless you expect
the class limit to be changing incredibly frequently.

If we had multiple subsystems that needed to walk the container member
list on a fast-path operation (e.g. to make a scheduling decision)
that would be a good reason to maintain such a list.

          perhaps
        - Move p->load_weight to a class structure

Sounds like a good idea if you can do it - but if it's per-process,
how would it fit in the class structure?
