kernel config

As I read the cgroups vs cgroups article[1], one need only enable
"CONFIG_CGROUPS=y" to use systemd correctly.  My system running a bfs patched
kernel[2] that does in deed have that set:

$ zgrep CONFIG_CGROUPS=y /proc/config.gz
CONFIG_CGROUPS=y 

I do see a peculiar line in the journalctl and am wondering if it is a bug or
if I need to setup something else that I missed in the article.  Systemd seems
to function on my system just fine.  Thank you in advance for any insight into
this message.

Error message: "Failed to create cgroup cpu:/: No such file or directory"

I attached /proc/config.gz from the machine which is an older i686 but I get
this same message on my workstation which is an x86_64/Corei7.
