This is with qemu and the boot continues normally. With real computer, there's no such output and system just seems to freeze. Could it be possible that the deadlock happens because there's some IO towards /sys/fs/cgroup, which causes a capability check and that in turn causes locking problems when we try to print cgroup list? -Topi
