That can either be a lxcfs crash or lxcfs bug of some kind.

Can you show "ps fauxww | grep lxcfs" on the host.

And then inside an affected container run "grep lxcfs /proc/mounts" and
for each of the /proc path listed, attempted to read them with "cat",
that should let you check if it's just one lxcfs file that's broken or
all of them.
