Why can't we do this right in one go? For me, the rush comes from RHEL8 as it is a goal to have a fully functioning cgroup v2 in that release. I also believe that most of the use cases of partition can be satisfied with partitions at the first level children. Getting hierarchical partition right may drag on for half a year, maybe, giving our history with cpu v2 controller. No matter what we do to enable hierarchical partition in the future, the current model of using a partition flag is intuitive enough that it won't be changed at least for the first level children.
