PS: I could umount most lxcfs items, but it seems systemd keeps /proc/swaps
busy. lxc-stop complained for these containers

lxc-stop 20180130193610.338 ERROR    lxc_commands_utils - commands_utils.c:lxc_cmd_sock_rcv_state:71 - failed to receive message: Resource temporarily unavailable
lxc-stop 20180130193610.544 ERROR    lxc_commands - commands.c:lxc_cmd_rsp_recv:157 - Command stop response data 1785884787 too long.

The containers using sysvinit were fine (no flamewar, please).
