Bug Description

libpam-cgfs expects systemd to create the name=systemd cgroup.

However, on trusty with upstart that does not happen. So the logged-in
user doesn't get his own name=systemd cgroup.

It's not entirely clear where this should be fixed. Putting the logic into libpam-cgfs may be fragile.

lxc currently puts 'name=systemd' into its list of controllers which must be available for the user. That's not always the case. Again it's not clear what the best thing to do there is.
