On recent systemd based distributions, systemd manages cgroups
automatically and we may be running in a cgroup by default.
Unfortunately, this can cause problems when trying to set the
scheduler policy so we need to move the target process to the root
cgroup (no scheduler policy restrictions in the root cgroup) before
we attempt to change the scheduler settings.
