Basic idea looks OK, and it seems like a plausible way to handle automatic construction/inheritance of control values. I have a minor worry that it might not be fine-grained enough though - are there maybe cases where you'd want cloning for one subsystem but not for others? I suppose in that case you can just put them on separate hierarchies. The file should be called cgroup.clone_children rather than plain clone_children, to fit in with the other new generic-cgroup control files that we've started introducing, and to avoid naming clashes.
