Not having the CPU controller on UBC doesn't sound good for the
infrastructure. IMHO, the infrastructure (for resource management) we
are going to have should be able to support different resource
controllers, without each controllers needing to have their own
infrastructure/interface etc.,

Having ability to limit/control different resources separately not
necessarily mean we should have different infrastructure for each.

I don't understand the comment above (in this context).
