But there's kernfs_activate() call at the end of rebind_subsystems(),
so if the files were being added there, it should have been activated
there and I can confirm that the files are correctly added / removed
from the cgroup2 root directory when controllers are attached to /
detached from it.

Hmm... we're activating at the end of

* cgroup_setup_root()
* rebind_subsystems()
* cgroup_subtree_control_write()
* cgroup_apply_cftypes() after successful addition
* cgroup_mkdir()

I *think* this should cover everything.  Just in case, are you looking
at the mainline kernel?  Can you share how you can reproduce the
issue?

Thanks.
