The cpuset controller was using cgroup v1 file names for effective CPUs and memory nodes on cgroup v2 systems. The file names changed between versions:

v1: cpuset.effective_cpus, cpuset.effective_mems
v2: cpuset.cpus.effective, cpuset.mems.effective

This caused cpuset().effective_cpus to return empty on v2 systems since the files don't exist. The controller already tracks the cgroup version via the v2 flag, so use it to select the correct file names.

Fixes: #156

@jfernandez Good catch and there are some problems with the CI, thanks.

The cpuset controller was using cgroup v1 file names for effective CPUs
and memory nodes on cgroup v2 systems. The file names changed between
versions:

v1: cpuset.effective_cpus, cpuset.effective_mems
v2: cpuset.cpus.effective, cpuset.mems.effective

This caused cpuset().effective_cpus to return empty on v2 systems since
the files don't exist. The controller already tracks the cgroup version
via the v2 flag, so use it to select the correct file names.

Fixes: kata-containers#156
