Bug#803013: systemd should not destroy application created cgroups

I am using cgrulesengd from package cgroup-tools to group each user's
processes together: each user in a separate group, most with cpu.shares
default 1024, some users with higher shares. The intent is "fair"
sharing of CPU resources on compute servers. - Though, I do not think
this is "relevant" here: any use of cgroups (outside of systemd) would
be affected.

Sorry I do not think I can do that, not easily enough: I do not think I
can install 227 on jessie, can I? (Of course I could upgrade one box to
unstable and try that way...)

Cheers, Paul
