An rmdir pushes css's ref count to zero.  However, if the associated
directory is open at the time, the dentry ref count is non-zero.  If
the fd for this directory is then passed into perf_event_open, it
does a css_get().  This bounces the ref count back up from zero.  This
is a problem by itself.  But what makes it turn into a crash is the
fact that we end up doing an extra dput, since we perform a dput
when css_put sees the ref count go down to zero.

css_tryget() does not fall into that trap. So, we use that instead.

Reproduction test-case for the bug:

 #include <unistd.h>
 #include <sys/types.h>
 #include <sys/stat.h>
 #include <fcntl.h>
 #include <linux/unistd.h>
 #include <linux/perf_event.h>
 #include <string.h>
 #include <errno.h>
 #include <stdio.h>

 #define PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP    (1U << 2)

 int perf_event_open(struct perf_event_attr *hw_event_uptr,
                     pid_t pid, int cpu, int group_fd, unsigned long flags) {
         return syscall(__NR_perf_event_open,hw_event_uptr, pid, cpu,
                 group_fd, flags);
 }

 /*

 int main(int argc, char **argv)
 {
        int fd;
        struct perf_event_attr attr;
        memset(&attr, 0, sizeof(attr));
        attr.exclude_kernel = 1;
        attr.size = sizeof(attr);
        mkdir("/dev/cgroup/perf_event/blah", 0777);
        fd = open("/dev/cgroup/perf_event/blah", O_RDONLY);
        perror("open");
        rmdir("/dev/cgroup/perf_event/blah");
