Subject: [PATCH] podman: workaround race during container creation
podman and OCI runtime have a race that sometimes causes
a container to fail to be created and run [1] if the
cgroup to be used is not available yet. When that happens,
try to recreate it until it succeeds or the start
timeout is reached.
