Bug#805498: systemd: Systemd errors in syslog: Failed to set cpu.cfs_{period, quota}_us

Hi,

The errors started when I installed Docker. I cannot purge Docker, since
it is running services that users rely on ;-) .
The error message however do not look Docker-related at all, do they?

Kind regards,
