1. runc update will clear cpu burst value

10000

2. Error for container update for the kernel not support cpu burst
   When I'm testing tests/int: swap-related fixes #4188 in ubuntu 20.04 with cgroupv2, I got some errors:

I'll add a testcase for this issue later.

The ubuntu issue you mention seems the same that breaks containerd tests with the new runc: https://github.com/containerd/containerd/actions/runs/8540558806/job/23398018642?pr=9313:

@lifubang do you know already what the fix should/might look like? Or did you find a wall as @kolyshkin with his PR?

Yes, it’s easy to fix this issue, but we found some other issues for ‘runc update’, we want to fix all of these issues in one PR, but it’s too difficult, I think maybe we should fix them step by step.
