    cgroup: fix RCU accesses to task->cgroups · 14611e51

    task->cgroups is a RCU pointer pointing to struct css_set.  A task
    switches to a different css_set on cgroup migration but a css_set
    doesn't change once created and its pointers to cgroup_subsys_states
    aren't RCU protected.
    
    task_subsys_state[_check]() is the macro to acquire css given a task
    and subsys_id pair.  It RCU-dereferences task->cgroups->subsys[] not
    task->cgroups, so the RCU pointer task->cgroups ends up being
    dereferenced without read_barrier_depends() after it.  It's broken.
    
    Fix it by introducing task_css_set[_check]() which does
    RCU-dereference on task->cgroups.  task_subsys_state[_check]() is
    reimplemented to directly dereference ->subsys[] of the css_set
    returned from task_css_set[_check]().
    
    This removes some of sparse RCU warnings in cgroup.
    
    v2: Fixed unbalanced parenthsis and there's no need to use
        rcu_dereference_raw() when !CONFIG_PROVE_RCU.  Both spotted by Li.
