We really shouldn't be asking userspace to create new root filesystems.
So follow along with all of the other in-kernel filesystems, and provide
a mount point in sysfs.

For cgroupfs, this should be in /sys/fs/cgroup/  This change provides
that mount point when the cgroup filesystem is registered in the kernel.
