We had one call in `CgroupSubsystem::active_processor_count` and two calls in `CgroupUtil::adjust_controller`. These were harder to untangle because the call in `active_processor_count` was guarded by a cache, and `adjust_controller` was called in the v1/v2 controller constructors.

After creating the cgroup subsystem, we adjust the controllers once from `OSContainer`, instead of doing it as the last step of the creation.

This looks OK to me.
