So, thread mode isn't delegatble.  Marking a cgroup as threaded turns
that subtree threaded and join the parent's domain, so we can't allow
delegation roots to be turned threaded - just like we can't mark the
root cgroup threaded, and I'm not really not sure what it means to
delegate a portion of threaded subtree.

Thanks.
