If the user specifies cgroup or cgroup-full without a specifier (:ro,
:rw or :mixed), this changes the behavior. Previously, these were
simple aliases for the :mixed variants; now they depend on whether the
container also has CAP_SYS_ADMIN; if it does they resolve to the :rw
variants, if it doesn't to the :mixed variants (as before).
If a container has CAP_SYS_ADMIN privileges, any filesystem can be
remounted read-write from within, so initially mounting the cgroup
filesystems partially read-only as a default creates a false sense of
security. It is better to default to full read-write mounts to show the
administrator what keeping CAP_SYS_ADMIN entails.
If an administrator really wants both CAP_SYS_ADMIN and the :mixed
variant of cgroup or cgroup-full automatic mounts, they can still
specify that explicitly; this commit just changes the default without
specifier.
