I think this feature make sense. But not meets a theory that cgroup handles
a thread not a process. So, how about changing the definition of this interface
from
  - showing procs
to
  - showing threads which is thread-group-leader.

One possible problem is a case that thread-group-leader exits while other
members are alive. In such case, thread-group-leader calls cgroup_exit()
but will be still alive until all sub-threads exit. So, this interface
cannot show correct information. 
(right ??? please point out if I miss something)

So, how about this kind of interface ? showing both of TID and PID.

%/cat/procs
TID  PID
1001 1001
1234 1001
3856 1001
728  728
....
....

nonsense ?

Thanks,
-Kame
