This is simply not supported by systemd. If you use systemd then it is
systemd that manages the cgroup tree for you. You may request a
delegated subtree you can manage your own stuff in, but the top-level
of the tree is always owned and controlled by systemd and if you
interfere with it, you get to keep the pieces.

This is explained here:

Sorry if this is disappointing,
