Not exactly - it meant that you couldn't do a fast dereference via t->cgroups to get to your cgroup_subsys_state, since there was no longer a unique css for each task for that subsystem - there would be one per mounted instance of the subsystem. Instead it became necessary to follow a chain of pointers to find the appropriate css for the hierarchy in question. In general this also means that it's harder for the multi-bound subsystem have any real-world meaning - it's mostly useful for stateless subsystems, or ones where the cgroup_subsys_state contents have no direct connection with machine-wide data.
