It probably doesn't need to be complex.

Unless there is a dependency with the cgroup tree and the cgroup test,
the test can go through kselftest tree with you. That is usually how
I handle kselftests.

If you think there is a dependency and it has to go through cgroup tree
then, I can give you the Ack once this TEST_* gets cleaned up.
