Bug Description
LXCFS upstream released LXCFS 2.0.8 as a bugfix release with following changelog:
- bindings: Add mountpoint for unified hierarchy
- bindings: Calculate uptime via proc//stat
- bindings: Revert virtualization of 'btime' field due to regressions in ps
- doc: Update README
- init: Add cgroupfs-mount to Should-Start/Stop sysvinit LSB headers
- lib: Add common fallback dlopen for liblxcfs.so
- lib: Fix the installation directory for liblxcfs to ${libdir}/lxcfs
- pam: Add a 'all' option for -c
- pam: Chown cgroup.procs file on unified hierarchy
- pam: Report back when we find a unified hierarchy
- tests: Fix invalid comparison
- uptime: Fix a problem with subsequent reads
Just like Ubuntu itself, upstream releases long term support releases, as is 2.0 and then periodic point releases including all the accumulated bugfixes.
Only the latest upstream release gets full support from the upstream developers, everyone else is expected to first update to it before receiving any kind of support.
This should qualify under the minor upstream bugfix release allowance of the SRU policy, letting us SRU this without paperwork for every single change included in this upstream release.
Once the SRU hits -updates, we will be backporting this to trusty-backports as well, making sure we have the same version everywhere.

For bionic, we'll just sync lxcfs from Debian after I get Debian to update the packaging slightly to deal with us backporting lxcfs all the way down to trusty.
