> There are two motivations for this:
> 1) It's very verbose to add a new isolator. For cgroup isolators (e.g., cpu, mem, net_cls, etc.), many of the logics are the same. We are currently duplicating a lot of the code.
> 2) Initially, we decided to use a separate isolator for each cgroup subsystem is because we want each subsystem to be mounted under a 
> different hierarchy. This gradually become not true with unified cgroup hierarchy introduced in kernel 3.16([The unified control group hierarchy in 3.16|https://lwn.net/Articles/601840/], [cgroup-v2|https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/cgroup-v2.txt|]). Also, on some popular linux distributions, some subsystems are co-mounted within the same hierarchy (e.g., net_cls and net_prio, cpu and cpuacct). It becomes very hard to co-manage a hierarchy by two isolators.
> We can still introduce subsystem specific code under the unified cgroup isolator by introduce a Subsystem abstraction. But we don't plan to support cgroup v2 in this ticket.
