OK, here's a patch that does that. It's not quite right yet, as it crashes on unmount, but the basic idea is there. It adds the additional "groups" directory by default, but uses the previous behaviour if the nogroupdir option is passed (done by default for cpusets).

Thoughts? Is this a direction we want to go in? As an option, or by default?
