Eh, you're right. I want to remove support for duplicate mounting by
name or subsys as it just isn't necessary, so what I want is,

* "mount -t cgroupfs -o SUBSYS" will fail if SUBSYS is already mounted
somewhere else.

* "mount -t cgroupfs -o none" will always create a new cgroup
hierarchy w/o any controller attached.

I didn't realize that the mount code didn't allow none w/o name and
now I don't see a non-intrusive way to remove the name option. :( Eh
well, I'll drop that part.

Thanks.
