Subject: [PATCH 1/2] cgroup: call cgroup_subsys->bind on cgroup subsys initialization

Currently, we call cgroup_subsys->bind only on unmount, remount, and
when creating a new root on mount. Since the default hierarchy root is
created in cgroup_init, we will not call cgroup_subsys->bind if the
default hierarchy is freshly mounted. As a result, some controllers will
behave incorrectly (most notably, the "memory" controller will not
enable hierarchy support). Fix this by calling cgroup_subsys->bind right
after initializing a cgroup subsystem.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] memcg: disable hierarchy support if bound to the legacy cgroup hierarchy

If the memory cgroup controller is initially mounted in the scope of the
default cgroup hierarchy and then remounted to a legacy hierarchy, it
will still have hierarchy support enabled, which is incorrect. We should
disable hierarchy support if bound to the legacy cgroup hierarchy.
