Public bug reported:

Currently, the 5.4 and 5.8 raspi kernels disable the memory cgroup by
default to conserve memory [1]. This is a legacy custom modification,
that is no longer needed, since the memory cgroup code has been
rewritten to no longer requires large amounts of memory [2]. So the
custom patch can be dropped. The patch is also the reason why the LXC
ADT test fails.
