As has been pointed several times, systemd doesn't require cgroups and will still boot just fine without it. It won't have all the features that take advantage of cgroups but that is expected.

I wouldn't say it runs just fine. It runs crippled. The only reason it does not crash immediately is to allow a kernel developer to see if his modified kernel still boots. Please don't use it for more than that. You would not get a good impression of systemd.
