Systemd since mentioned commit decided to mount /sys/fs/cgroup as read only (so userspace might fail to create for example /sys/fs/cgroup/freezer).

This breaks ulatencyd on my box.

NOTE1: commit message suggests they did it to work around glibc bug NOTE2: No, I don't suggest that ulatencyd devs should fix it by dirty hack

closing, systemd clasifies this as 'wontfix', and claim that appropriate dirs are created at boot (so if your kernel has support for freezer, it will be created by default). This does not happen on my setup, but it seems to be working on my virtual machines...
