Comment (by Iceland_jack):

 This compiles

 {{{#!hs
 type family   Functors (fs :: [(Type -> Type) -> Type -> Type]) ::
 Constraint
 type instance Functors '[] = (() :: Constraint)
 type instance Functors (t:ts) = (LvlUp Functor t, Functors ts)

 class    (forall x. cls x => cls (f x)) => LvlUp cls f
 instance (forall x. cls x => cls (f x)) => LvlUp cls f
 }}}
