This feels too error prone. I'd rather revert the original commit. Yosry,
imma revert f3a2aebdd6. Can you please add a separate function which allows
looking up IDs for cgroup1 hierarchies if absolutely necessary? But,
frankly, given how inherently confusing using IDs for cgroup1 hierarchies is
(fd for cgroup1 identifies both the hierarchy and the cgroup, id is
inherently partial which is super confusing), I'd rather just not do it.

Thanks.
