/sys/fs/cgroup is a tmpfs, so docker is fine.

snooze also have this `mkdir -p`, but it's shipped by upstream.

OK, my filter missed that, I filtered out `/run` and `/var/run`

Closed issue by Duncaen on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/660

Description:
There is no policy or standard for the preferred method to create certain directories and permissions.

I personally think its better to setup permissions once using `make_dirs` or the `INSTALL` script.
First reason is that if the service fails and the run script runs every second its just a waste of time.
Second reason is that if the admin changes some permissions some services tend to just blindly recursively `chown` or `chmod` directories making it impossible to setup different permissions without
changing the run script.

Directories on `tmpfs` are an exception.
