Others are using it but with SoC specific defconfig and not multi_v7.

Newer version of systemd needs more config symbols to be enabled
besides cgroups, the full list is at
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/tree/README.

Tony recently added the recommended support to OMAP2+ defconfig so
something along these lines should be added to multi_v7 as a
follow-up:

673ce00c ("ARM: omap2plus_defconfig: Add support for distros with systemd")

Best regards,
Javier
