Public bug reported:

Almost half of the ubuntu_ltp_controllers tests are failing due to the
general pattern 'cgroup_name already mounted or mount point busy'
causing the tests to fail.

e.g.
mount: /dev/cgroup: ltp_cgroup already mounted or mount point busy.
cgroup_fj_function2_memory 1 TBROK: mount -t cgroup -o memory ltp_cgroup 
/dev/cgroup failed

From investigation it seems there's an issue with the transition to
cgroup-v2, which on the ltp mailing list has been rumored that one of
these days the tests would break. Its likely this was caused by a
systemd update, switching to cgroup-v2 causing these tests to break due
to different mount and cgroup hierarchy semantics.

After setting systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=0 on the kernel command
line which sets cgroup back to v1, we get the expected failures that we
saw in previous cycles, pointing to this not being a kernel regression.
