So, I am confused. According to Documentation/cgroup-v2.txt,
cgoup.threads is delegated:

[[
Model of Delegation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A cgroup can be delegated in two ways.  First, to a less privileged
user by granting write access of the directory and its "cgroup.procs",
"cgroup.threads" and "cgroup.subtree_control" files to the user.
Second, if the "nsdelegate" mount option is set, automatically to a
cgroup namespace on namespace creation.
]]

So, is that a mistake in that text file?

Yes, it is.  I probably copy&pasted from an earlier version where we
were marking threaded domains instead of threaded roots.  Will fix it
right away.

Thanks.
